COACH’S REPORT – Coach Feesler

v Coach Feesler has handouts with dates available for the players and on the Website. We plan on utilizing the Website more to get information to the parents and players in place of e-mails.

v Open Fields are Wednesdays after school, weather permitting through Thanksgiving. Tuesday’s and Thursday’s from 2:15 – 3:15 will be lifting after Thanksgiving.

v We collected $1800 for the Red Cross at the parking fundraiser.

v We plan on having field 3 (previously Freshman) redone. Possibly Division 2 or 3 Regional could be held here then. The Varsity field looks very good. We are still waiting on the final bill for the fields. We may eventually need another shed to provide for more use of the fields.

v The trees in honor of past players have been planted and an order has been placed for this year’s graduates.

v The banners need to be stored in the shed for winter.

v We are able to get the same menu for the banquet this year.

v Erica Remshard will be signing her letter of intent with Cleveland State November 9.

VICE PRESIDENT’S REPORT – Lori Sanders

None at this time

PRESIDENT’S REPORT - Rob Cheripko

v For the Kroger Classic this year, we as a club need to provide 3-5 workers. The proceeds will go to Big Boosters.

v There will not be a joint fundraiser this year with Central’s Boosters. A Real Estate referral program was presented at North’s last Booster meeting as a fundraiser and they are looking for any ideas or anyone that would like to be on a Fundraising Committee. Currently, there is not a Fundraising Director.

v Our club will again receive $400 and 10% of the sales from the concessions from the Boosters. We need to provide the workers and have a Concession coordinator.

OLD BUSINESS

Alan Tharp confirmed the Golf Outing net profit and explained that the extra $2.00/person charge was due to a spring rate vs. fall rate. He has agreed to help with next year’s outing and has already gotten three tentative dates for next year at the same location. Sunday, September 17 was discussed as our first choice. We plan on having Sponsor, Donation and Food committees and would like to have coordinators for each by our January or February meeting.

NEW BUSINESS

Jan Chandler will check to see if our club has limited space on the Website. We plan to have important dates, game schedules, minutes and newsletters there instead of mass e-mail communication.

Our next scheduled meeting is January 22, 2006 and thereafter; February 26, March 26, April 23, May 28 and June 25.
