HomeMy WebLinkAboutFMinutes100913_Page_3can add them to the invitation list. We need Marc LaMond's e-mail address, too.
Additionally, fathers attending "Fathers & Flashlights" may be added to our invitees.
At this time the price of event entry is likely a cash donation in lieu of liquor bottles.
As for the actual Ball event, we are considering a ring toss rather than a "pull" as the
means of a win. This way we may be better able to control the stock and maintain
display uniformity.
VI. Public Relations (Kristine Martinez)
Fathers & Flashlights press release will be sent for publication as soon as net income
is determined.
VII. Parks and Recreation (Tim O'Connor)
The request for $200,200.000 from Friends for 7 parks improvement projects was
presented (see attached). A discussion took place regarding ongoing maintenance of
new installations, reforesting, etc., followed by a question and answer session.
A motion was made to approve this funding request and the Board voted unanimously
to approve the request.
VIII. Other Reports and Announcements (Donna LaMond)
Fathers & Flashlights 2013: We are working ensuring all expenses are in so that we
can calculate our net for this event. We anticipate the net funds raised will be record
breaking. Thank you to the event co-chairs for their hard work and dedication, they
have been wonderful to work with. We are so fortunate that these dynamic couples
are coming back to chair F & F 2014!
PLB 2014: To add to the chairs' report, the next wine harvest event, Mummy's Night
Out, will take place on October 25 at the home of Susie Boyce. Mummy's Night is
being underwritten by Frost Bank! Thanks for the updates on the Man Cave and the
plans to stock that.
Christine Parker has really stepped up as our new Treasurer. We are continuing to
work on getting our paperwork updated with any financial institutions to add
Christine as a signer and to remove Courtney Archer, our former treasurer.
It has been all focus on Fathers & Flashlights since the last meeting with PLB 2014
pushing forward too. Please refer to the weekly reports that you receive via email for
an ongoing update on other Friends activities.
IX. Adjournment
The next meeting of the Board is scheduled for Wednesday, November 13, 2013.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 12:17 PM.
Respectfully submitted,
Debora Connelly Piccolo
