[Board] One Sky Request

[Nancy Gulley]

Thank you for your committees time in planning the Challengers Cup event.
Regarding the "Gala" I think we remain tried and true to the Monday and
Thursday use of the club.  I discussed an event with them last year and
offered the Monday/Thursday and they turned it down. So, I am sticking to
the same dates but will go along with the boards decision.
