Meeting commenced at 7:30 pm.

Purpose of meeting: To decide whether EKMHA will offer a AAA Pee Wee program next season.

50/50 Lottery

Brian informed the group that Kentville is going to organize a weekly 50/50 lottery. Motion George C. 2 - Mike R. that EKMHA get on board with Kentville in the fundraising venture and negotiate a profit sharing arrangment. Carried by majority vote.

Budget problems

Carrie informed the group that we have bills outstanding but no money to pay them. $4850 is to be paid out for which we cannot cover. This $4850 does not include the $1000 startup money to be returned from the canteen or other revenue generated by the canteen. Possible solutions:

• negotiate canteen rental fee payable;
• pay Acadia $10,000 now rather than the $13,000 billed until their additional charges for ice cleaning are corrected;

We have not heard from Wolfville about funding.

Motion Peter H. 2nd Robin F. that the budget shortfall be studied and dealt with by the Financial Committee. Motion carried by majority vote.

PeeWee AAA

Motion Robin F. 2nd George C. that EKMHA support a PeeWee AAA team for the 2002/03 season with the provision that EKMHA provide 2:15 hours ice per week, referees for 1 game per week and insurance costs, the team being responsible for all other costs. Motion carried by majority vote. (11 in favour, 0 opposed, 4 abstained)

Meeting adjourned 8:10 pm.

Next meeting TBA.
