PRESIDENT JOHN'S "Thank you for caring a whole awful lot" went to GENE COURTANEY for past leadership and continued will-\break ingness to volunteer; and to GREG DONAT for his help with GSE teams and groups of legal professionals visiting from Russia.

ROB GALBRAITH introduced his one time landlord, Bill Watson, Indy 500 Photographer, who gave us a fast look at his 45 years from behind the lens at the world's largest one-day sporting event. He pointed out that the race track has the world's largest PA system, a full hospital on site, and holds church services every Sunday during the Month of May. Food and merchandise sales and clean- up are handled by volunteers earning funds for their charitable organizations. The Snake Pit at Turn One has been eliminated. Traffic control and security are considered a model for other events. He had several other interesting facts and stayed after the meeting to talk with race fans.
