They negotiated the Slide for Life, climbing a 75-foot tower then riding down a steel cable on a trolley for 150 feet before dropping into the water. The cadets also traversed an 80-foot beam suspended 25 feet above water.

Motion carried COMMENTS FROM THE CHAIRMAN: DeVries reported that there was a proposal for a consolidation of two current committees: Member Outreach and Special Events. At the past Board Planning meeting the Board gave approval for the dissolution of these individual committees. The committees will be consolidated to allow for greater strength in member volunteers. The two committees will continue through the 2016 summer season and will eliminate the monthly meetings, yet meet on an as needed basis. Meetings held will revolve around event planning, with the coordination of planning being done by Mary Applehof, Recreation Manager and Marti DeVries, Board Chairperson. The consolidated committees will continue to prepare new member packets, host new member social events, volunteer appreciation events and any other events where community member volunteers are necessary. DeVries discussed the Board consensus on revisions to the petition for proposal documents. At the May Board meeting a member proposal was discussed, and it was noted that the Board determined a need during this summer season to look at the various forms used by the Sandy Pines over a number of years.
