Our January 10th meeting was held at Arrowhead Elementary School. Brenda called the meeting to order at 7:10. The boy scouts were not in attendance, so Brenda led us in the pledge. The attendance was 29.
First Topic: Wayne Troester and Treasury Report
The main expenses during the month of December were listed as a neighborhood mailing of the newsletter (1900 homes), paying for the illuminaries, and tickets to the VBCCO dinner for officers and award nominees. The current balance is $1890.18.
Topic: Carolanne Farms Park Update
Due to a low number of returns of the park survey on the website and in the newsletter, surveys were passed out to attendees to gather their responses at the meeting. A speaker will come to the February meeting to discuss and answer questions about possible solutions to crime at the park. The league would like to sponsor minor improvements that might increase the number of people legitamitely using the park.
