Time to enjoy the beautiful colors and reflect on memories of this past summer.

As I’m preparing to review this past year financial, our organization has experienced highs and lows.  Our “highs” for this year: an awesome turnout for the Spring bingo, Silent Auction and Meat Raffle.  The “lows”: GLA memberships are down, drop in price per pound on our can recycling bin and the loss of financial support from Chisago City. This resulted in GLA not meeting our budget for 2009.

Final financial numbers will be published at the Annual Meeting on November 5, 2009.

Julie Vick – Treasurer

Bring on the Summer Weather!

The spring bingo was very well attended and it exceeded our expectations.  Thanks to all who attended this event.  Looking forward to another one in the fall.
We currently have 75 paid members (as of May 15).  GLA will be updating the paid members listing throughout the year on our website.

GLA is an ALL Volunteer organization solely supported by membership fees, donations and fundraisers.

As we prepare to enjoy another spring and summer we are faced with challenges of the current economic times.

The Board has reviewed the 2009 budget and will be planning treatment applications accordingly.  As you have read in the president’s article, we will be treating less acreage. Providing no major unforeseen expenses and current fund raising levels are maintained, we can fund and execute our five year treatment plan.

The Annual Financial Statement is listed below.  You should note we had a deficit year.  The budget for 2009 is forecasting GLA to have a break even year.
