New Business

a. Winterguard fees need to be collected immediately. Only 7 of the 27 participants have paid in full.

b. The credit card machine has not been utilized properly. We have already incurred a large expense to pay for the machine therefore it would be to our advantage to use it when we can.

c. Nominating committee – must be composed of 5 members. One from Executive Board and one to represent each class. The nominees must be a current voting member of the boosters. These nominees must be set ASAP so there can be elections at the April booster meeting. Taisa Duncan volunteered to be the Executive board rep and Julie Harlan volunteered to be the freshman representative.

Mr. Peak thanked all those who worked on the Disney trip, chaperoned, or spent countless hours planning the trip. Because of your efforts the trip was a tremendous success! Our tour company Kaleidoscope Adventures was phenomenal!

Mr. Semones also wanted to thank all those who went on the trip. He also thanked Lynette Thomas for her many hours of planning the trip. It has been a rough year on the operations side of the band but the band itself has produced awesome performances all year throughout both marching and concert season. Thanks for a great year!

Meeting adjourned by President Todd Peak.

Respectfully Submitted,

Taisa Duncan, Secretary
