Fundraisers:

Great Video Productions: The replacement check has arrived and cleared.

 

Mardi Gras Day: This fundraiser was held 2/17/07 at the United Methodist Church in Tempe. It was an effort to raise money for Katrina victims. The Boosters sold cotton candy. The event did not have a large attendance, but the Boosters made $10.00. Thank you to Kathy Hermanson for volunteering her time.

 

There was a Yard Sale on February 9-11 at the home of Bob and Becky Ingram. A total of $347.00 was made for the Boosters. Thank you to the Ingrams, Kathy Hermanson and everyone who helped with this event.

 

The vendor of the Coupon Books, Academic Advocates, has reported that they are going out of business. They will honor our contract and follow through with our coupon book as planned. Greg will donate 500 books free of charge. All of the coupons will be valid through March 2008. We expect the proof to be given to Francine tomorrow for approval.

 

Time Share: The Boosters are registered for the Timeshare fundraiser. We need to provide a W-9 form to the organizers to proceed. Becky Ingram will obtain the form and send it in. The Marriot is the only resort participating. Couples must have combined annual salary of $75,000.00 to participate. Each couple receives $100.00 (given to the Boosters) for a 90 minute no-obligation presentation.

 

The Boosters will hold a Flower sale at the Coronado/Supai Concert on March 5th. Francine Porter will buy roses from Costco and sell them to parents and family members to give to their students following the concert.

 

Business:

The band Uniforms need to be cleaned as soon as possible.

 

The Boosters have one rifle available to be given for the David Sampson Award to previous years’ Guard members. The award is given each year to a deserving Color Guard member in honor of a former member who lost his life in a tragic auto accident. Plates for mounting onto rifles will be ordered for 2 past recipients who have yet to receive their awards at a cost of $15.00 to $20.00. A plaque will be ordered with the three recipients names engraved at a cost of $125.00. Bob Ingram will finalize the orders and solicit donation of 2 more rifles.   

 

Spring Tour:  The tour is 2 weeks from today. A Tour Packet will be issued to each student on Friday. The packet includes an itinerary, packing list, conduct/behavior expectations, room assignments, etc. There are several forms which must be signed and returned before the trip. Deadline is March 7th. Students are expected to pay for some of their meals, as explained in the packet. They will be responsible for their own money unless arrangements are made allowing a chaperone to hold and distribute the funds.  

 

Band Camp: The Mingus Mountain Camp has not received a contract from the Nevada High School for the week of August 6-11, so the week is ours. Doc Bennett has teacher in-service scheduled on Aug. 9th and 10th and would need to get permission to miss that. The week of July 23rd is also open. We may also schedule a short week during the August dates.

 

Becky Ingram motioned to adjourn the meeting. Ella seconded. Motion passed.
