Community Foundation sent us a letter acknowledging our contribution to bring the yearly scholarships up to date and the receipt of the additional funds.
 
Scott saw a flyer for the annual Easter Egg Hunt  at a local restaurant. It had our name on it as a sponsor and we have sponsored in the past, but we haven't received a request from anyone as of yet. Motion by Betsy and 2nd by Dan to donate $300 as we have in the past towards this years hunt.

Lion's Convention is this weekend, although Scott and Kerri are unable to attend, is anyone else interested? Please see Scott or Kerri after meeting to discuss.
 
Ro/Ro - Kerri thanked Frank and Peggy for taking over Ro/Ro, they did a wonderful job and livening up the booth and getting community involvement as well as making nearly $400 for the club. Drawing for the Quilt - Winner is Betty Bordman, Frank will contact her.
 
Kerri asked that all chair people for OSD let her know what contact information she can put online (either an email or phone number) so she can use that to direct specific questions to the proper people instead off all the questions coming to her at large.
 
Steve P noted that we can't do one button price for OSD as we discussed at the last OSD meeting. There is a clause in our contracts that states we have to have tickets, and there is also a maximum number for attendence which we can't track with tickets. The OSD committee will meet right after this meeting and review the contract and determine an alternative.
 
Motion by Kerri to adjourn. 2nd by Kathy. Motion carried.
