Wally asked if anyone wants to keep Chapter 34 going or otherwise it will be inactive. The turn out today is not good and we were to have a plow day. The problem with Chapter 34 was that Dave wanted a Cub Cadet club but the membership area extended to the southern and mid west states and Canada. Also the club could only have plow days and no other activities.
