New Business:
Ben Baldwin advised the Sheriff’s office has been putting together a Rescue Dive Team.  They had a boat donated to them and a trailer.  Ben further informed that the boat was in need of a motor but they had found a used one that costs $1500.00.  Ben asked for a donation on behalf of the Sheriff’s Department from the FOP to pay for the cost of the motor for the boat.  Gary Mohre made a motion that the FOP covers the entire cost of the motor, 2nd by Steve Schlosser.  Motion passed after voice vote.  There was some discussion about the boat being utilized for Rescues within the county and for anyone else who needs help.
