Committee Reports:

1. Concessions: Les Gray No Report

2. Membership: Kevin Bugg gave us an update; we are at 202 members and looking forward to Spring Sports parents meeting

3. Eagle wear: Lisa Bugg report given by Kevin Bugg; looking to set up at Freshman Orientation on 2/4 and Spring Sports parents meeting on 2/23 (will probably deplete inventory during these events and the balance of the school year)

4. Sponsorships: Kevin Bugg reported that we are excited that Mac Allen has decided to renew his baseball sponsorship early (actually due Nov 2015) for $3,500. If all sponsorships are renewed for the 2015 -2016 school year (May to May), revenue generation should be approximately $46K. The majority of the sponsorships were for baseball’s capital project but will renew and go towards the ABC general fund.

9)  2015 Scholarships: Anna Crisp is meeting with Mrs. Hubbard in guidance on Wednesday (1/7/15) of this week to iron out details for the scholarship. Mrs. Hubbard has actually already taken the liberty to put the scholarship info out right before Christmas. April 17 th deadline for submitting applications and must be an ABC member prior to March 9th.

10)  Revisited the ABC Master Plan and approved funds transfer of a couple known commitments for 2014-15 (prioritize)

New Business (15 minutes):

1)  Freshman Open House on 2/4: Spiritwear , memberships, etc

2)  On 2/2/15 rolled out plans for the April 11th EFHS ABC Annual Golf Tournament at Pine Knolls with a 1pm shotgun start (no prom, no major events in town; avoids Easter/Mother’s Day); Pearce will leave open the 8pm slot just in case we have a lot of teams (he want to know three weeks in advance if we’ll need an 8am and a 1pm shotgun start). $27.00 per player (not bad and has worked well for two other golf tournament that I’ve done there). We would Charge $60 per golfer, $240.00 per team, and $300 for a team and hold sponsor. Hole Sponsors are $100.00 if purchased sans a team. Nothing to do now, just an FYI. As we look at the above known expenses, the RR and golf tournament revenue will definitely help.
