CSC will have a dunking booth and will be selling candy with chances to win prizes. We are in need of volunteers and I will send out a separate email explaining those needs. Jim Becker has done a great job in securing donated prizes. Debbie Martin and Cheryl Sipe are going to work the booth during Spring Fling and Jim will run the dunking tank. Both committees have been very successful in selling candy during April also.

New and Unfinished Business:

Dr. Kaplan will be at our next meeting and her office is providing lunch for that meeting. Therefore, our entire hour will be devoted to talking to Dr. Kaplan. If you want to attend, you need to RSVP to me so that we can order enough lunches. I will be sending out an agenda to all of you for your input. I will also put out a separate email listing those who have signed up so far. The meeting is on May 15, 12 noon, CN 301.

The Distinguished Service Award committee is working hard and will have decisions made by the end of next week.

The food drive for St. Elizabeth's went very well. We ended up with 52 boxes of food and $120. My thanks to everyone.

We voted that 25% from every fundraiser will go to the scholarship fund.

We will need to discuss a logo for CSC. Jim Becker is working on them and we will discuss it at the June meeting.
