First Report - Nick Gasemy (Director)
Second Report – Kim Belisle (Treasurer)
Third Report - Jo McManus (2nd Vice President)
Student Accounts need a better process for collection because so many accounts are past due, and the usual method for collection is not working. The board will work on this.
Fourth Report – Robin Marquart (1st Vice President)
Championship wear – 2 logos to vote on. Last year they had a nice quarter zip. Logo 2 is winning in the vote. Full zip hoodie for all seasons, or lighter weight ¼ zip wicking sports material. The Board is still looking at the budget before ordering. Logo design came through CANVA rather than outsourcing. Once it is approved by the board, students will be asked for their size. If students do not respond, their size is based on their uniform size. Hopefully the items will be in by next term – unlikely to be here by Disney.
Jen – planning for Disney, loading and unloading trucks and trailers. Will be looking for volunteers. Still looking for volunteers for Jazz Night(Moira), KIDA (Jen), and the end of year Banquet.
