Agenda Item: President’s Report - Sharon Parsons
Discussion:
·
Sharon called MyLocker because there was a
concern that a check for the 12% of sales
has not been received in a long time.
She found out that they had changed it to store credit instead of
cash. Sharon had them change that back
to cash and they sent a check for $1042.00 for all that was owed. Sharon also set up an account where we can
view sales on a more regular basis. We
should be getting checks quarterly from them as people make purchases. It was suggested that we do some more
advertising for MyLocker. A 10% discount
code was sent and some posters were printed that are located in the Concession
Stand.
·
Concession Stand – Lela has been opening on
Saturday mornings for the Rec games, which has helped with the sales. The coffee maker that we have had for years
had broken, Lela donated a newer one, she also picked up some mouth guards to
sell.
·
Spiritwear – Sharon Thielicke has been working with
Paint n Place with her new design. The
full design we approved at the last meeting was too costly due to all the
colors, so Sharon has revised that.
Sharon Parsons had a sample of the SMHS t-shirts that were printed. The total cost to purchase shirts and print
was about $10. The committee agreed that
a retail price of $15 would be good.
Sharon T. is working on taking out some colors for the SCES design and
will get that to Paint n Place for printing of the blue children’s shirts.
·
Scholarships
– Sharon reported that our Scholarship form has been given to the guidance
office to be included in the scholarship packet and on the guidance website. We will also include it on our Booster
website. The committee agreed that we
should ask guidance to take the names off of the application and simply number
them before giving them to us to review.
A subcommittee was formed to review all scholarships and make
selections. This group does not include any parents of current seniors.

SMHS Open
house – Sharon asked if the Booster club would be willing and interested in
organizing and providing a cook out for the fall open house. Laurie mentioned the open house event at the
Elementary school that included a cook out at a small cost, she said it was
well received and had a great turn out.
The committee was interested in getting the word out to more parents as
their kids enter SMHS about the Booster Club.
Discussion will continue.
·
Other
Booster Clubs – The committee discussed the idea of looking at other
schools and how they run their Booster club, more specifically some of the
things they offer their schools. Sharon
talked about looking at some of the needs of the school and its students and
working towards filling those needs. The
following were some of the ideas:
o
Providing food/snacks for those in need.
o
Weekend backpacks full of food for families in
need
o
After school program of some sort for those
students who stay late
o
Dress clothes closet – manage a closet somewhere
in the school that includes dress up clothes for boys and girls for concerts or
sports events
