Also, asked for it to be approved for up to $3000 so reorders could be made throughout the year without having to ask each time they run out. This was voted on and approved. Old Business: Athlete of the Month-December Kinzie See- Sophomore Weightlifter Ethan Detimmerman-Senior Basketball player Athlete of the Month-January Tie for Male Athlete Parker Rhines-Junior Bowler Terick Pryor- Senior Basketball player Emma Schulmeister-Junior Bowler Summer concessions will continue to be run by the Booster Club. Ann Stegal will oversee it with Lindsay and a couple other parents willing to help her. Basketball Concessions sales surpassed last year’s sales. New Business: New High School softball uniforms are needed and have been ordered for approximately $3000. This covers 2 sets of tops and 1 bottom for each player. The Booster Club is being asked to cover $1000. Approved New Football headsets are needed. They were new in 2015 and a couple are broken and would need repaired. Possibly could pay to have them repaired, but this headset will be obsolete within the year. New ones would be approx $3100 with a $1400 trade in value. The Booster Club is being asked to cover $1000 for new headsets for Football. Approved New Football Down Marker is needed as the one we have is broken. Discussion was held for Flip version vs LED style. The Flip one would be $300 vs the LED $900. Concern for longevity of the LED style and cost. Dollars saved could better serve our students on other things. Flip version is to be ordered. Mike Vandenhaul is asking the Booster Club for $300 for a 1 year Subscription for a Record Keeping System to track athletes and communicate with others. Currently Google Docs is used and this new system would be much more friendly to have everyone on the same page. It is used by UNI and an athlete would have a profile with parent info, history, injury reports and treatment updates. Scholarships (Terry)- Two $500 scholarships will be offered (1 male & 1 female), the same as last year. These are to be given at Awards Night in May. Information will be sent out soon for those eligible to apply. Open Forum: Ryan is looking into ways for Online Donations to be made. More info to come as he looks into this. Ex. Paypal, Venmo For the Golf outing this year, it was suggested that maybe changing it up to keep it interesting. Taking Pledges for a Golf Marathon was suggested for this year. The Oelwein Community Education Assoc made a donation of $500 to our club which we thank them for. Donors list has been updated. Discussion was held for what should be paid for the entities that worked concessions this winter. It was suggested $200 a night would be appropriate. To be paid is: Class of 2026 $400 Class of 2027 $200 FFA $200 Girls BB $400 Volleyball $200 Cheer $400 A Total of $1800 We will let the Entities know that we have this money earmarked for them and will cut a check for them when they want it. Purple and Gold Bowls are a hit and a suggestion was made to continue serving this. It is Mac N Cheese with pulled pork on top. Adjourned: 7:11 Next Regular Meeting: March 6th, 2024 6:30pm
