Old Business

 

The Fulton Track Invitational recap worksheet was passed out and discussed.  The Boosters cleared approx. $2,400, which is the best we have ever done.  Steve said that everything ran smooth mostly due in part to the timing system that Carson City allows us to use each year.  Steve did mention that the timing system is getting old and he doesnÕt know how much longer Carson will have it for Fulton to use. 

 

Motion by Sarah, support by Chad that the Boosters purchase a set of six (6) hurdles for the track as we have done this for the past several years.  Motion carried. 

 

The raffle fund raiser was discussed.  Now that the Boosters have their tax ID # we can get the license.  Chad & Sarah will be working on this.  The application fee is approx $50.00.

 

Sarah informed the Boosters that we have opened our own account now.  We have our own federal tax ID#.  We will no longer have to provide our books to be included in the Fulton Schools audit.  (as was per the auditors request to the administration)

 

 

New Business

 

The annual golf outing was discussed.  Sarah will send out letters to the pin sponsors asking for their support again this year.  The cost will stay the same as last year $50 for a pin sponsor and $200 a team to play in the outing.  Chad is getting the sign-up sheet ready to send out to last yearÕs participants.  There will probably be a small committee meeting in July to finalize the outing. 

 

ProctorÕs Corner

 

Steve has been approached by the HS Track teams and they would like to have ham & dinner rolls at their banquet.  Steve will get the ham from his athletic fund and the boosters will buy the rolls.  He has not heard any requests from the other spring sports teams. 

 

Steve informed the Boosters that ŌMeet the TeamĶ night is scheduled for Wednesday, August 15th at 6:30 p.m. in the high school. 

 

Steve also informed the Boosters that he will be stepping down as athletic director after this year.  He is going to be in the classroom full time.  The Boosters would like to thank Steve for all of his support and hard work over the years. 

 

Other issues/concerns 

 

Sarah Henry was in attendance and presented the Boosters with a proposal for Varsity Cheerleading Uniforms.  The proposal was for 10 to 13 sets of uniforms (shell, skirt and body suit).  Motion by Sarah, support by Kelly that the Boosters approve 10 to 13 sets of Varsity Cheerleading uniforms at a cost not to exceed $2,450.00.  Motion carried. 

 

Kelly asked the Boosters if it would be o.k. for the youth football team to use the football concession again for their season as they have in the past.  The Boosters didnÕt see a problem with this. 

 

The next regularly scheduled meeting will be held August 20th at 7:00 p.m.  This is the re-organizational meeting and the position of Secretary/Treasurer, whose term is expiring, will be voted on at this meeting. 

 

Motion by Steve, support by Kelly that the meeting be adjourned at 7:45 p.m.  Motion carried.

 

Respectfully submitted,

 

 

Sarah Stephens

Secretary/Treasurer
