New Business:

-Sonya Faken had brought information about an archery program that is through the North Dakota Game and Fish Departmen for Physical Education classes. Equipment for the program is $3000.00 but if the Booster Club would donate half of the amount they would match funds for the rest. It was agreed we would give the information to the appropriate faculty and if it was something they would like to do we would help support it. Jessica Rakness made motion to approve matching funds up to $1500.00 if the program was wanted. Second by Shelly Giroux. All in favor, none opposed. Motion carried.

-Scott Redding had contacted Sarah Fagerland about the possibility of having a 4th Grade Basketball Tournament in the spring. All the available weekends allotted to our group by the school for this spring are taken but it was discussed that we could possibly try to tie it in with the 5th and 6th Grade Tournament in the fall.

-Darla Fimrite of Burlington Electric had contacted Cari Olson wondering if we would have use for ten cases of water they had left over from Trunk or Treat that was held at Peace Lutheran. Jessica Rakness is going to contact her as we could use them for movie night.
