The Matanuska Valley Chamber of Commerce
met at noon luncheon in the basement of
the Lutheran Church on Wednesday of this
week. There'were eighteen present includ
ing visitors. i
Mr. Snodgrass made a report on his findings
regarding a Trailer camp for tourists. He

making plans for such a camp. Since this
is the case, there was no further need for
action by the Chamber in this matter.
Mr. Snodgrass also reported on the progress
at the airport. He stated that nearly all
the cutting is complete and that the fiild'
•will soon be ready for stripping. The funds,

almost exhausted. Other funds allotted to
this project have not yet arrived.
