April 2018 by Charles Brecheisen

Greetings Altair Shipmates.  Here is your monthly report for April 2018.

ALTAIR REUNION:  Several different emails  were sent out to 250 shipmates with reunion attachments of the registration form and the activity schedule.  I converted the uSoft Registration "Word" document over to a PDF file to make it easier to use.  I snail mailed 137 letters with info to those without computers.  I have gotten back over 20 from the USPO with wrong addresses, moved to addresses and a couple have passed away.  I found corrected addresses for 12-13 shipmates and have remailed.  Still got some back. Please let me know if any shipmate needs additional information. 

ALTAIR FINANCES:    The beginning April my cash-on-hand balance was $480.80 and expenses of $153.88 leaves a balance of $362.92.  Expenses were postage, printing, envelopes and labels.  The beginning and ending balance of the savings account is $10,229.19.  Total cash-on-hand $10,556.11.
