Attendees:
Ken, Dani, Anne, Dottie, Philly, Darlene, Carla, Phil
Meeting commenced: 1910
Ken began meeting by giving applause to all board members for their hard work this season. Only one injury to have Philly report (Alexis). Most coaches showing interest in coming back and there were no complaints!
Suggestions for next seasons closing ceremonies:
Coaches call up whole team instead of each girl individually and emphasize more on the Dotti Stolze award winner.
Next season we need to announce the board members and sponsors.
Talk of spreading out the round robin games during the week before closing ceremonies to cut down on games on closing day and have championship game only on closing day.
Use a sponsor for appreciation party.
Have ceremony and awards start at 9:00 a.m. instead of mid day.
Pre-schedule "teams" for snack bar duty on closing day.
Jose from La Estrella wants to get involved with snack bar next season! Improve on food selections, assemble already cooked burritos.
Three person committee for snack bar: Dottie, Jose, Kathi
