Old Business -
Homecoming -
- Michelle is looking into changing the food vendor for the lunch instead of doing eegees, years past would spend $430 and we would run out of food. Thinking of finding someone else, even pizza.
- Called a sausage shot place - $600
- Quiznos was the most expensive - $900+
- Pizza hut - $630 total?
- Will talk to Rees about offering sponsorship to compensate. She will speak with him about it and see what he thinks.
- Another option is breakfast food, bagels, fruit, milk, water, granolas, maybe
- Will also meet with Rees about regular game meals too.
Tailgating -
Celina is on the wait list if season pass holders decide they do not want the pass I will be in the next group offered the passes left over. Called the ticket office and they stated that they would start sending out the passes in June, my parents have not seen theirs as of yet so we are still waiting when we do get that pass I will email and let everyone know.
Newsletter
- get it to Alumni in July -
- Use same format from last year easy and quick can take automatic registration and credit card instead of mailing in the form and paying by check.
- Steve will research into online registration
- Going to invest the mail in a box so the registration will be all together instead of having too many folders
