Minutes from Reunion July 29, 2007
The Scott Family Reunion met on Sunday July 29th at the Early Lion’s Club. This was the 70th Anniversary of the J. Newt & Ruby Lillian Scott Reunion. The meeting was called to order by Ed Scott. Minutes from the previous year were read by Julie Scott. Debbie Gallaway gave the treasure’s report. It was motioned to pass by B.W. Scott and seconded by Misa Flournoy. Marie Walker gave a report on the website. Marie asked the family to continue to send in photos to share and keep her informed of any family status changes throughout the year.
New Business: Mac McCowen told the family about the Comanche County Historical Commission History Book. He then introduced Fredda Jones, who further explained the project to the family. Everyone who was born or lived in Comanche County in or before 1930 was eligible to have a page in the book. The deadline for submission was to be Sept. 15, 2007.
B.W. stated that Mac & Carolyn McCowen donated the new banner for the 70th Reunion. The group showed their thanks by a round of applause.
Chairman Ed Scott read the reunion minutes from 1937, the first Scott Reunion. He also recognized the following:

Joe Scott – 2nd Chair
Robert O. Scott – 3rd Chair
Jack Scott – 4th Chair
Edna Harrison – 5th Chair
S.M. Eudy – 6th Chair

Ed then told the family about the article that Candace Cooksey Fulton of the Brownwood Bulletin had written on the J. Newt Scott Family and the 70th Anniversary Reunion. There were copies in the back of the reunion hall for anyone who wanted a copy as a keepsake.
There were several speeches on family and importance of continuing J. Newt Scott traditions.
A motion was passed to form a committee to find alternative choices for a more family friendly meeting place. The motion was passed by a majority vote. Committee members are: Bobby & Amber Walsh; Tami Edgar; Steve Harrison; Rick & Amber Maitland and Misa Flournoy. They are to report back to the association their findings.
Chairman Ed Scott authorized $25.00 extra to be paid for additional electricity cost on the building over the weekend.
Jason Scott suggested that the Association look into renting moonscapes so the kids would have something to do outside. Marie Walker said that someone would probably need to check with the Lion’s Club to see if their liability insurance would allow us to put one on the property.
Election of Officers: Deborah Gallaway was nominated for the position of Treasurer by B.W. Scott and seconded by Faye Hart, motion carried. Marie Walker was nominated for the position of Secretary by Bill Hart, seconded by B.W. Scott, motion carried. Steve Harrison was nominated for the position of Vice Chairman by Terry Scott, seconded by Bill Hart, motion passed. This year’s Vice Chairman moves up to be 2008’s Chairman, Barbara Smith.
Ed Scott recognized his brother, Greg Scott’s improved health. Greg then thanked the family for their prayers and church prayer groups, God and his wife. He also thanked Ed for filling him for him as Chairman last year (2006) since his health did not allow him to fulfill his duties.
Marie Walker stated that she made several calendars and address books for the reunion. The cost of the calendars was $25.00 and she would donate $10.00 back to the reunion fund off the sale of each calendar. She only wanted to recoup her cost of printing the calendars. Address books were $10.00 each, the cost of having the books printed.
Jimmie Smith motioned we use Cook’s Fish Barn to cater the 71st Reunion in 2008, Robert O. Scott seconded and the motion carried.
Faye Hart motioned, B.W. Scott seconded that Marie Walker be paid a sum of $275.00 for maintaining the website and to reimburse her for any costs accrued during the course of the year.
Ed Scott had to rent extra tables and chairs to handle the Scott clan for the reunion this year as the Lion’s Club did not have enough. B.W. Scott motioned and Jack Scott seconded that Ed be reimbursed his expense, motion carried.
B.W. Scott motioned and Jimmy Smith seconded that the JNS Reunion Association continue to pay the $11.95 per month to Tripod.com for hosting the family website. Motion carried.
B.W. Scott thanked Marie Walker for handling the design and coordinating the t-shirt and baseball cap orders for the 70th Anniversary.
There was an interest in trying to get a family cookbook together. There was no committee formed to handle this task.
Family Reports: Virginia May reported on her family and was thankful her extended family was here; B.W. reported all was good on his side of the family; Barbara Smith announced that her son Greg was engaged to be married and introduced his fiancé, Meghan; Brent was still in the Marines and had returned to Iraq. Please keep him in your prayers. Robert O. reported that all of the Coley family was present, minus a few.
Motion was made and carried to meet at the Early Lion’s Club the 4th weekend of July 2008 for the 71st Reunion. This would be the weekend of July 26-27, 2008.

Respectfully submitted: Marie LeBlanc Walker
