JAMESVILLE-DEWITT ALL-SPORTS BOOSTER CLUB MEETING

September 9, 2014

In attendance: Nadine Dye,Kris Fuller, Theresa Fuller,Michele Kretsch,Diane Schulman, Larry Schunck, Jodi Schwedes, Jeanette Siegel, Sue Smith

Meeting called to order at 7:05 pm

Approval of minutes from June14, 2014 meeting

Motion was made and seconded to approve the June meeting minutes.

Financial: Kris Fuller

Kris explained the financials and discussed the budget.

So far this year we have received $1300 in logo sales, $3700 in membership dues, and $400 in concessions

We spent about $2200 to re-stock the concession stands.

Something new this year is the ability (limited) to take credit cards for purchases and dues. The service costs the booster club 2.75% of purchase price, which is relatively inexpensive. This cost is not being passed on to the consumers as the hope is that the added convenience will increase membership and logo purchases.

Today we have about $6900 in bank. $5000 of that is earmarked for the turf committee to complete our commitment.

Larry has some outstanding golf money ~ $1000.00 that he will be passing on to Kris.

Motion was made and seconded to approve the financial statements.

President’s Report: Larry Schunck

We have increased prices on pizza, nachos, and burgers. The price of soda will remain at $1 for now.

What about trying warm pretzels or bundling meals like a burger, chips, and drink?

Emily is available for large shops, but we need someone for small shops. In fact, we need an additional concession stand person to evaluate inventory on a regular basis.
