In past DESERT SAGES the column
"FROM THE CHAIR" has covered a wide range of topics. This year instead of
hearing it from the chair, each of the DPS officers will prepare a more or less
regular column for their areas of responsibility. Thus you will hear from John
McCully on outings, Wendy Ruess on our financial situation, Christine Mitchell
on minutes and membership, Bill Gray on programs and the banquet, Pat Acheson
on conservation, Patty Kline on Council doings, Dale Van Dalsem on mountain
records, Dave Jurasevich on the Road and Peak Guide and myself on archives and
history. Ron Jones, the SAGE editor will receive all these inputs and add
editorials etc as appropriate. Some items worth emphasis:

TREA$URER'$ REPORT | |||
The DPS 1991 fiscal year ended on September 30th. As of that date we had $1182 in the bank. Our income for the year was $6628; our expenses $6697, resulting in a $70 loss. We've adopted a budget for the coming year to turn that loss into a modest gain. California's fiscal crisis means we must now pay taxes on everything we sell, including our Sage subscriptions. Therefore the subscription price has been increased to $10. Prices of DPS merchandise have also been raised slightly to cover the increased tax rate and to better reflect our shipping and handling costs. We have a complete stock of DPS patches and pins, and a limited supply of colorful t-shirts and sweat shirts emblazoned with the DPS logo. Show off your allegiances and order a shirt or patch today, using the adjacent order form. Wendy Ruess, Treasurer |
