Meeting: A sunshiney spring evening at a colorful orange picnic table amongst freshly cut grass and newly painted pools and hard working Hershel in the pool, while kids play on 3 different swingsets:
Kristi Haney plans to contact radio DJ re: season pool pass give away idea for upcoming Memorial Day picnic on Saturday May 29th. This advertises for the pool/community.
Nancy Sigmond made suggestion of 2 single passes give away (with option of purchasing family pass to make up the difference). Kristi Haney made motion. Christina Kish 2nd.
Recap of Pool opening kick-off: Bike Parade 11 a.m., Picnic 12 and Corn Hole 1p. Plans finalized for Saturday for set up/bike parade planning/pool opening plans. Kathy & Kristi will register and collect fees for bike participants. The Musics will vote on the winner and runner up since they have no children participating. Erica & Susan will organize corn hole. Table set ups 10:30 a.m. by Susan Swanson and Tina Hendry. A call was placed to Randy Childers/Paul Hockenberry (recommended by Herschel Marshall) to request fire truck to lead the parade. Jim Smith will hedge the children in from the rear with convertible vehicle. Kathy has 2 trophies for the bike winners and Lisa has 3 trophies for Cornhole Tournament. 100 4x6 American flags were donated by Jim/Jane Smith to give to each parade participate. Kristi Haney already distibuted flyers to Davis Creek Elementary & she is putting up 8 signs in the area for advertisement. Jim McSweeney also made a call and had it placed in the Herald Dispatch (free!)
Discussions made and all in agreement that the officers on the board do not make any decisions without consultation of 13 board members total. Unless decision is imperative related to time or less than $75 spending, all major decision making must involve the 13 member board (or those that can attend at a meeting). Email communications & blog updating continue to be first line of running ideas, calling meetings or simply communicating things that have or need to be done. Everyone was in agreement that all board members have the best intentions and trust regarding the pool but that it is important that we follow to the upmost business-like manner to run a trustworthy and reputable business for our community.
Pool filling plans to occur Wednesday May 26th, 2010, 4p-12a with the assistance of the Fire Department utilizing the fire hydrant. Discussions made on the best angle and set up and closings of some of Bartow Drive to make allow this to occur.
Thank you Susan Swanson for donating drain items needed for our pool.
Thank you Herschel Marshall & Jim McSweeney for working all day today-installing lights, pressure washing concrete, fixing the new stairs and etc.
Thank you AEP/Jim McSweeney for the new rope donation for the entrance of the community building/pool parking lot.
Thank you Alecia Adkins for being our fearless leader!
Continued thanks to the community's support-and these 13 board members for reuniting this community and giving our kids a safe and fun place this summer!
The world is hugged by the faithful arms of volunteers. ~Terri Guillemets
