Old Business

A request was made to get the band and the students closer. A discussion for playing other music, like Apex who played the 007 theme, ensued.

 

The flower sales were lower than last year, due to numerous circumstances.  It is felt that team reps could help drive them next year.

 

Passes for past Presidents can into play again, with the belief it would be a good gesture and that it wouldn't cost much to do so. Coach Hamilton will provide a list of Presidents in the area. 

 

Band cookies sales not great, may provide remainder to other teams. Also, 10 Loonies were donated to each team coach.

 

Elementary school section is still desired, possibly on the other side of the band. Smaller Loonies were ordered and are being sold for them.

Parent Loonies were also ordered in blue, and should be available.

A “wish List” was provided, not in priority order, for use in future discussions on best uses of PAC funds.

 

New Business

A question was raised whether any other contributors besides PAC, gave to the Bus Fund.
