Committe Meeting Agenda for August 25
Abbreviated Meeting Minutes from July 28
Members Present: Janet, Lisa, Sue, Gary, Jeff, Jay
1. Committee meeting minutes from April were approved.
2. Reports
Sue: The troop now owns a 6×6x10 trailer. Still need to title, license and insure it and are working on that. Summer camp fees were paid in full and there is no outstanding debt on the boy’s part. Checkbook balance is $5235.16.
Gary: PLC has outlined a rough plan through the end of the year. Coming up are the Rivanna trail cleanup and day hike to Rip Rap followed by Apple Harvest prep campout and Apple Harvest.
3. Old Business: The popcorn in the scout room expired in 2007. It will be given out to the boys tonight since it can’t be sold. There are still 2 cases of caramel corn with no dating on it (although it is approaching 3 years old). We will drop the price to $4/can and try to sell it within the troop.
4. Unresolved Business: Jay would like new dining flys ready by Apple Harvest. Jeff will assemble the materials and work with the boys during a troop meeting so they know how to put them together. The finance section of the parent/boy handbook has now been updated to include guidelines on how funds from a scout account may be used. Funds may be used for troop activities or registration but not to finance an Eagle project. Once a scout ages out or leaves the troop, funds will revert into the troop general account.
5. New Business: Jay brought the committee a letter written by the Philmont expedition leader detailing his experience on the trip. The committee reviewed and discussed the letter.
Agenda for August 25:
1. Appproval of July minutes.
2. Reports from committee members.
3. Unresolved Business: Philmont trip
4. New Business: Applebee’s fundraiser (logistics, date and whether all money goes to troop or it some portion will go towards boys accounts) and peanut/popcorn sales. Decals for side of trailer.
