6. The 2016/17 budget was reviewed and approved. Copies will be available soon.
7. Terry provided an overview of the "Steve Pfeifer Memorial Sign Building" at the Balloon field. An accurate materials estimate was obtained this week which shows the project will be more expensive than originally estimated. Total cost of construction will be about $5,000. The National Balloon Classic has agreed to pay a portion of the expense and efforts will be made to find other funds to help with the overall cost. Work will commence soon.
8. The Club meeting on June 10th will be moved to the YMCA because of the Dobbers Up Golf Tournament.
9. Warm Coat? Boot Project?? Both topics were discussed, but a decision was made to gather more information before a formal decision is made to fund either or both of the projects.
10. The board approved the purchase of new Song Books for the Club, at a cost of $5 each. Ron will take care of ordering the new books.
