Old Business

  • Discussion on t-shirt ordering. We need to put a cap on cost of shirts for State Qualifiers, and find out exactly who is getting shirts and how many will be needed.
  • Athletic Banquet-feedback and discussion
    • Need to review certificates and make sure no athletes are missed. Lily Seivert has been missed 2 years in a row.
    • Jill reached out to Rachel in the HS office after the banquet, we need to let the office know what we are considering a sport so they are clear on who to print out certificates for.
    • Suggested that no comments from the coaches, to cut time.
    • 2 lines for the food needed next year.
    • Have a slideshow/video running in the background during the banquet.
    • Focus on just our awards (Top Dawg, Scholarships, Blankets)
    • Work on getting more students to show up. The lack of seniors was very noticeable.
    • Print pictures as the seasons go to make it easier at end of the year.
    • Need to collect rosters from the sports throughout the year. We can put into a spreadsheet and keep track of 3 sport athletes ourselves.
    • Promote Scholarship applications more next year.

 

  • Wins and Losses for previous school year
    • We need to look at how to run basketball tournaments once Brendyn is off the Board.
      • As of now he will continue to help, but is also willing to teach members as we go.

 

New Business

  • Thank and acknowledge exiting committee members-Dawn Seeley, Randy Quartier, Michael Lounsbery. Invite them to July meeting.
  • Explore options for new committee members- Kayla Schurch, James Neumayr, Krissy Kjose, Al/Krissy Mullinix. Look at list of Booster members and check that for potential Board members also.
  • Venmo? Need a person to run the account-unable to do as a business.
  • Look at taking credit cards during membership sign-up so members don’t have to go online.
  • Discuss creation of new sub-committees--rename comittees so we are all on the same page and know what expectations each will have.
  • We need to talk to school about a place to store our stuff, trying to keep everything in one place so we aren’t always hunting for everything.
  • We need to reach out to Tricia Bak and get info for inventory and ordering the homecoming swag, so we can be ahead for Homecoming.
  • Adam reached out to Troy, and he is still willing to run/help with Frostbite 4. He doesn’t want it to go away.
  • Carrie brought up purchasing our own ipad to use for signing up members, using google docs, running cards, etc.
    • Will help with having less checks, less opportunities for them to get lost (which has happened in the past)
    • Erik will look into the cost of an ipad and let us know.
  • Discuss committee member commitments and expectations for upcoming year-cut down to 3 comitees, with 5 members per committee.
  • Brendyn reached out to Owen and got potential dates for bball tournaments. Dec 14, 21, 28. Wrestlers gone 14, 21. Feb 22 (holiday weekend), March 1 (state wrestling), 15th (Girls State).
