FB4
FB4 committee is waiting for us to send out our thank you’ s for the sponsors. They have asked that we list some items that the money supports thru the Booster Club. Michelle is going to send Chuck @ Printing Plus a PDF of our Watchdog so we can get the card made. She is also going to work with him on what to say on the back of the card.
Mike and Jeff have both had discussions with Troy Swee (FB4 Committee) about the FB4 and the perceived slights between the committee and our club and about having more say in what the money raised is used for. It seemed that most of the issues were from 6-8 years ago. They talked about what to do moving forward. After looking at the bylaws the FB4 has a committee chair position on our Booster Club currently filled by Tom D. Jeff is going to suggest to Troy that someone from the FB4 committee needs to fill that chair so the two are more closely connected.
Brad is going to talk to Larry Orr with SDPB about filming a documentary about the FB4.
