Update on Band Truck
   -Not totaled, estimation to fix is $15000.  Insured through APS. 
Truck is at Maintenance.  Don't know how long it will be before it is 
fixed.  Sounds like we will have a loaner truck for the beginning of 
band season a BIG thank you to APS food services as they are lending us 
a decommissioned truck!!!!.  Mike Goodrich and/or Mary Scofield will try 
to get all the tie-downs from the truck so that we can us them in the 
loaner truck

Ms. G asked the Band Boosters to put $1500-$2000 aside to pay for Mason 
and Mr. Sorenson, both of whom are helping with marching band this year.

Fundraising Idea:  Pancake breakfast at Applebees on Gibson. Ryan 
Goodrich knows who to contact regarding this.  He will let Ms. G know.

Denise Tomlin is our Pagent of Bands representative.  Elizabeth Robison 
is staying on to help until we find another person willing to take this 
on.  So,  we need a booster to volunteer for this position.  They say 
the meetings are fun!!!!!!

Mary Scofield asks that boosters keep a notebook and write down 
procedures of events that they have been in charge of over the course of 
their involvement.  There are several band boosters with kids who are 
seniors so we need to make a big effort to recruit new band boosters.  
We will have a sign up sheet at the Friday end-of-band-camp concert for 
parents to sign up if they would like to be part of the boosters.
