Hi folks,
I guess we are all working on the same wavelenght I meet yesterday with Jeff and here are some updates on where we are:
1. Warrior Path Facilities. We have reserved the park and camp. We are checking on the use of the children park facility. It is almost done but there is still contruction on-going. Jeff is going to check what can we do. There are some fun activities that can be done there. Also if we can not use it, we need a strategy to maintain the kids out of there, since is a very tempting spot for them to hang out.

2. Patches. Jeff has those ordered and expect them to be node today or tomorrow.

3. Tents. Lyle and Tammy are still looking into the national guard in Gate scity. The fallback position is to use some tents that Eastman may faciliitate. The negative side of that is that we need to get them, assemble them and return them. THe Natioanl guard ussually does all that for us and threfore are the preferred option

4. Acitivites. We have 5 out of 6 towns confirmed. I still need confirmation for nature for T-250. Jeff is contacting M. Alley today. Jeff will provide sign holders and I will rint the paper signs for them.

5. Heathers. I still need some extra heather. I have one, but need more.

5. Chairs and tables. We will like to have 2-4 tables. POrtable chairs were brought by members, so I would encourage everybody to bring theirs.

6. First aid and hot food and drinks. Council and Brenda will help here. JEff is bringing their first aid kid and Brenda will coordinate the hot coffee and chocolate.

7. Registration. SO far, Dan Firth, Brenda and Ingrid will handle registration.. I will provide the forms and materials.

8. Prices, Plaques and Ribbons. Jeff is getting the plaques (1st, 2nd and 3rd overall winners) Everybody will get participation ribbons. We need9 nice gifts for the 3 overallwinners,and6 first place for each town. Smaller gifts for 2nd and 3rd plance for each town.

9. PA system. Jeff will bring the councill PA system. We need two extra 100feet extention cords to get power from the part to up in the hill. I also will get a battery operated bullhorn. I will also get from walmart a couple of air horns.
