The cell phone campaign has gotten off the ground this past month.

Robert reported that Mrs. Kim Roach would be chairing a fundraiser with Nicola�s Pizza. All students will be receiving a form with information on selling, ordering and delivery sometime this week. The fundraiser will run for several weeks. This is yet one more chance for any students who needed additional funds for the spring trip to earn them. For each Nicoboli sold they will earn $1.10, for each case of Nicoboli�s sold they can earn $13.20. Kim can be reached at 645-5540 if anyone has any questions. Connie Holdridge advised that the Musical that was being planned for February has been cancelled, and therefore we will not be holding a spaghetti dinner during that month. We will however still pursue the plans for the April dinner to be held at the Lighthouse Restaurant. A question was raised as to whether there would be a limit on the number of tickets sold and also whether it would open to walk-ins. It was explained that at the last dinner at the restaurant there was not enough food to serve all those that attended and we will plan accordingly to avoid that happening again. Jamie Shea submitted information on sponsoring a new fundraiser at Cold Stone Creamery Ice Cream Store. The board will look into this further and information will be available at February�s meeting. Old Business Alan Bales was unable to attend tonight�s meeting due to illness. His first organizational meeting to help plan a dance at Rusty Rudder was cancelled and is rescheduled for January 18th at his home. Please come and please contact Alan for directions at 644-1883. We have been penciled in at the Rudder tentatively for March 17th, a Friday night. Robert reminded everyone that the Martin Luther King Parade is still scheduled for Saturday, January 14th at 11 am. All students� uniforms are to be cleaned after this final parade and turned in. They will be stored for the spring trip. Those students who will be performing for County Band should keep their uniforms until that is over. The meeting was adjourned at 7:40pm. The next meeting will be February 13th at 7pm in the school cafeteria. Minutes respectfully submitted by Joan Williamson |
