The exact details are being worked out but it appears that the club can have a home at Transtar and we can use the conference center at the facility for meetings, testing and other club-related activities.

There may be some insurance items that need to be covered under our policy which we will check.  I have suggested that we consider having things finalized for the August meeting.
