VVA Board of Directors Monthly Meeting Call to Order Tony Gronniger, lot 2281, called the meeting to order, held in the upper level of the clubhouse at 6:30 p.m. Board Members present were: Mark Leggett, lot 72; Celeste Armanees, lot 62; Troy Lesan, lot 576; Allan Slavin, lot 181, Marvin McNabb, lot 28 and Mike Booth, lot 2380. Celeste Armanees led in prayer. Shad Mort led the Pledge of Allegiance. Troy Lesan wanted to mention that Lake Viking has lost two (2) longtime members within a couple days of each other. We lost Norma McCaulla age 94 and Jack Morris, whom both have been in our community for many, many years. Before opening the business of the regular meeting, Tony Gronniger informed the members, the Daviess County Sheriff would like to speak to the members. Sheriff Larry Adams Mark Leggett introduced the Daviess County Sheriff Larry Adams. The Sheriff wanted to share what his office does and their capabilities and what resources they provide. Daviess County has 1 Sgt., 4 road Deputies, 1 Courthouse Security Officer and 2 Office Administrators. Some of the Sheriff’s Office duties include maintaining the Sex Offender Registry, Court Security and Court operations. We have the only Regional Jail in the state, which we are partners with Dekalb County. We have the capacity to house 200 prisoners and at this time we have 126 in our jail. There are 24 sex offenders in Daviess County. The Sheriff’s Office also does civil paper service, take calls for service, and their own investigations. Daviess County does work closely with the Missouri Highway Patrol to give our citizens the best service they can get. Larry commented that Lake Viking Safety does a great job and he has

talked with Jason McTheeney to let him know the Sheriff’s Office is here to help with whatever they can to keep our residents safe. Daviess County has updated their traffic enforcement equipment and their investigative equipment and utilizing training to get our Deputies as top notch as we can. Larry’s goal as Sheriff is to be able to open up to every community in Daviess County, which covers approximately 600 square miles. If you see weird traffic, weird people or anything like that we would want you to call our office, even if it is anonymous. We want to be proactive when possible and get out in front of these things by investigating early and hope to solve the problem. Larry opened the floor for questions. Robert Walton asked if when 911 is called, is that the Sheriff’s office. Larry responded that calling 911 the call goes to Daviess County Central. Daviess County Central will then page out the necessary aid for what the situation calls for, whether it be police, fire or EMS. Resa Wiltse is concerned about the beach areas and kids drinking and trespassing on Lake Viking property. She asked Larry who she should call when she sees things happening like this. Larry responded if it looks like someone is hurt, call 911. Larry went on to say if you see a criminal act or someone breaking the law call the Sheriff’s Office. If you see things, you know are infractions of the lake rules you should call the Safety Dept, but if someone in a public area is breaking laws or acting suspicious then call the Sheriff’s Office. Someone asked about the shifts the Deputies work. Larry said they have two (2) full time shifts, 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., 4:30 p.m. – 12:00 (midnight) and from midnight to 8:00 a.m. is a call out situation. Troy Lesan brought up trespassing at the lake is a huge problem here. He asked Larry if we could get a license plate of someone who is engaged in a flagrant act of trespassing what can the Sheriff’s Office do? Larry said if you can get a li-

cense plate without having to engage anyone, then call it in to the Sheriff and it is their job to track that person down and do a criminal interview and investigate. Troy went on to say our biggest trespassing issue is illegal dumping. Marvin McNabb commented we are putting up surveillance cameras and Larry said that would be a slam dunk for prosecution. Mark Leggett thanked Sheriff Adams for coming to this meeting. The Sheriff and our Safety Coordinator, Jason McTheeney are working closely to help educate our members. Two of the challenges we have asked Jason to work with the Sheriff on are speeding on our roads and late night boating. The Sheriff and his staff could be a great benefit to help in solving some of our issues. Tony Gronniger opened the meeting with the Vision/Mission Statement: “Lake Viking is a private lake aspiring to preserve our community and environment for future generations.” “Our informed members are the strength of our community.”

June 13, 2021 Approval of Minutes Mark Leggett moved to approve the minutes of the May 9, 2021 Board meeting. Celeste Armanees seconded; motion passed. Finance Committee In reviewing Financial Statements, income line items are up from this time last year with notable increases in collections and building permit fees. Expense items are running the same if you take away the capital gains tax, we paid this year. The Capital Expense item of $20,000 for Safety Boat dock has fallen off due to an agreement that we have made with Lake Viking Marine for an annual rental of one of their docks which we feel will be a much more secure area for our new Safety Boat. The rental will be charged to the Safety Expense line item. Meanwhile the Capital Expense amount will be absorbed by expenditures approved at last month’s meeting for [Continued on Page 4]

Know Your Numbers… When it comes to planning our Party Guest List we all follow the rule of “the more the merrier.” However, that saying doesn’t necessarily apply when it comes to boating. All boats should have a Capacity Plate located near the steering area or helm. If your boat does not provide that info, you can calculate the number of people you can safely carry using this equation … Number of People = Vessel Length x Vessel Width ÷ 15 Remember, the maximum person capacity is a guideline that needs to be adjusted based on the average weight of your passengers (150 lbs.) and other supplies you are taking on board. The Maximum Gross Load is the total weight your boat can handle—including people, equipment, fuel, engine assembly and steering controls.
They are as follows: Movement Conflic�ng – 4; Unauthorized Watercra� -3; Noxious or Offensive Behavior – 2; Sharing of Marina Gate Card – 2; Failure to Display Orange Flag – 2; Failure to Chain and Lock Private Boat Ramp-2; Loose Pet in Campground – 1; Unauthorized Use of Dumpster – 1; Failure to Maintain Silt Fence – 1; Failure to Maintain Trash in a Sealable Container – 1; Careless and Imprudent Driving – 1; Storing Boat without Current Year S�cker – 1. $2,400 in fines assessed with a $400 fine for Dumping Without Permit and $500 for Un-authorized Boat on the Lake.

Lake Viking News
VVA March Board Meeting
Also covered at the Finance Committee was the recent and unexpected development with Lake Viking News which I will also go over in this report to membership. Last month’s sudden announcement by Gallatin Publishing that they will suspend operations on June 1 took everyone by surprise. Basically, it meant that we would suddenly be without the newspaper and the LakeVikingMo website. When Tony read part of our Mission Statement earlier, he noted the point about informed members being the strength of our community. The loss of the newspaper and website jeopardizes this goal, and it would have been a monumental task to recreate substitutes. At this time, I want to personally thank Mark Leggett. While most of us, myself included, were ringing our hands over what to do, Mark sat down with Jill Steward, our Gallatin Publishing contact, and crafted an agreement whereby we could keep these two fundamental aspects of our communications intact. Briefly the agreement calls an $1,000 a month payment for three years as an outright purchase as well a $2,000 a month fee for 90 days where Jill, will oversee the transition after which time a GPC employee, who is both ready and willing, will go to work for us on a part-time basis to continue the operation. This sounds like a lot of money, but please realize that the Lake Viking News takes in around $50,000 a year in advertising which will become our revenue. Even with the significant upfront costs, we are told that we will still net $1,000 a month with more coming in when those costs fall off. I’d like to add that when news of the closure of Gallatin Publishing broke, our office received several calls from concerned parties most of whom were advertisers who were very concerned that they would lose the exposure they receive from Lake Viking New. The Association did not actively seek this publishing endeavor but now that it has fallen into our lap every indication is that we can make it work to our advantage while keeping the same level of information going out to members. Starting next month there will need to be two new line items on our Financial Statements – one for Publishing expense and one for publishing income which we believe will be the greater of the two. Committee Reports: Strategic Planning Committee Tony Gronniger commented a meeting is being scheduled. There will be a report of this years Board goals at

[continued from page 4]
Infraction Committee/Safety Allan Slavin gave the report for May infractions. There were 12 infraction notices issued and 21 warnings. The Committee reviewed 19 violations. There were 2 infractions dismissed and 17 upheld. The bulk of the infractions were minor for trash and dogs roaming, but there were 2 infractions received $400 and $500 fines for building without a permit and an unauthorized boat on the lake, respectively. Dredge Committee Shawn Hepinstall reported on dredge operations: We are moving forward with our contract of the south end project. We have a verbal agreement with them at this point, with Board approval. We will be doing this in 2 phases with the first phase cleaning out the existing silt basin and rebuilding the berms. The second phase would be installing the drain systems. Potential starting time will be the first week of July. We will have to build a temporary road off of 165th street. Shawn and Shad walked the 3 tubes area and we will need to cut and drain the existing basins in that area. Shawn has had inquiries from members about moving docks to dredge. We will move docks from a safety standpoint, but we will not move docks to clean out under them. If a member needs dredging done under their dock they will have to hire for that to done on their own. Shawn asked the Board about accepting the policy he presented to them last month. The Dredge Committee would like to have this policy on record. Mark Leggett asked about signage for the dredge ponds from a safety standpoint. Shawn replied they are working on this. Lake Manager Report (Shad Mort) 1. Trash contract: The new trash company will be bringing in his dumpsters early so we can have a smooth transition. There will be a trash truck left on sight. 2. Road work: We will be patching the next few weeks with asphalt. We plan on putting down 500 – 600 tons of mix so we will be ready for the chip and seal process. The goal is to be ready to chip and seal sometime early September. 3. Tube replacement: We have 2 tube replacements to do. There is a very large one to be replaced at the shipyard and the 2nd one is in the campground 1 area. 4. Fireworks: We are ready for the July 3 fireworks. This will be the last year for the shooter we have had for the last 10 – 12 years. 5. A new maintenance worker was hired last week to replace Riley Blades. His name is Shadow Phillips. We look to hire one more very soon. 6. The new Handbooks are available in the Office. Financials Troy Lesan moved to approve the financial reports. Mark Leggett seconded; motion passed.

buy some round tables for upstairs. The Board gave their approval to make these purchases. 2. Joe Jacobson addressed the Board about a variance to extend his new dock more than 41 feet (existing length) out from shore. The Building Committee said the building file shows a 38-foot length, so sometime over the years someone moved it out to 41 without a permit. The Building Committee recommended he try to dig out first. The Board asked Joe for more information before they can make a decision on letting the dock go out farther.

Stay Safe… Big Changes are Coming… A�er several years of hard work and planning, the South End silt pond project is about to take off. Keep in mind that while the silt pond might look like a great place to ride your ATV or explore, it actually is a very dangerous area. This deep pond holds loose, lightweight materials that share the same characteris�cs as quicksand. So, whether inside or outside of the silt pond berms, remember NO MOTORCYLCES, NO ATVs, NO BIKING, NO HIKING

Experience
Norma was an animal lover and a cat aficionado. Her house was full of cat statuettes; she had cat images on her pajamas, on sweaters, on socks, and cat refrigerator magnets. Cats were often on the many greeting cards she sent. She had owned many cats. Her most recent “Blackie” was one of her favorites . . . and anyone who went on an errand to buy cat-food needed to know that Blackie would only eat “Patee.” Norma was a devoted friend. Prior to their passing, Norma and the “four musketeers” (Ina, Lucille and Ruth) were very active in everything. The people who knew her often said she was young at heart. She liked to ‘play’ and laugh often.

13
By Troy Lesan
This goodie basket was one of many prizes given away at numerous drawings.
It seems like when wri�ng about Associa�on Ac�vi�es Commi�ee Events, superla�ves are becoming a regular thing. Terms like “huge turnout” and “bigger and be�er than ever” are o�en used. As for the 2021 Fi�h Annual Lake Viking Poker Run, the superla�ves are once again applicable. The Poker Run has become one of the most popular events of the year, and this year’s edi�on was by far the “biggest yet” with 315 entries. With close to 100 more entries on Saturday morning right before the start, it got to the point where Ac�vi�es Commi�ee volunteers, who usually me�culously plan for everything, were running out of maps and other things. Likewise the helpers at the various sta�on were really kept hopping.
The five sta�ons where par�cipants drew a card were at South Big Creek, Beach 2, Beach 3, Campground 1, and the Five Pines area at the very southwest corner of the Lake Viking Property. The good turnout translated into a lot of drawing �ckets sold by the Ac�vi�es Commi�ee. By the �me the day was done, over a $1,000 had been accumulated for the 50/50 drawing. The lucky winner of that drawing was Nancy Walsh a weekend guest of Ellen Dors. There were also cash winners for best poker hands and other drawings. Thanks again to the Ac�vi�es Commi�ee and their many volunteers for the hard work. The line-up of ac�vi�es they have organized, during the past few years is extraordinary. I know – another superla�ve.
A BIG thanks to our sponsors!
The clubhouse was a crowded place during the start and finish of the Poker Run.
