Roll call showed the following present: Chuck Dickerson, Lisa Brandt, Jackie Schleder, Dan Miller, Jane Reger, Kirsti Glasgow, Jim Reno, Helen Johnson. Dan moved to approve the minutes of previous meeting, motion was seconded and passed. A report of our savings account and checking account were announced by President Dickerson. The Treasurer was unable to attend this meeting. At our May meeting the board recommended that we discuss our Awards Banquet thoroughly at our June meeting. After various possibilities and reforms to our Annual Awards Banquet it was decided to vote first if we wanted to change back to having the awards presented at a luncheon instead of an evening banquet. The vote was in favor of presenting the awards at a Luncheon. Regarding the rest of the details they will be determined at a later date. These items being: do we have a silent action? how many awards we will present and what for. Lisa Brandt made a very good point to having pictures from the October Cleanup and the project Bright n' Beautiful will do for the Day of Caring. We talked briefly about getting Polo Shirts with our logo for all of our board members to wear. We know we need to be much more visible. Helen will check into this. Our July meeting was changed to Tuesday the 20 This is because we will have a representative from "Keep America Beautiful" here to talk to us. The luncheon will be at Perkins Restaurant on 27 at noon. Bright n' Beautiful will pick up the tab. PLEASE, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU NOTIFY ME WHETHER YOU WILL ATTEND THIS LUNCHEON. THANK YOU. (We need a count) Helen asked for some suggestions of whom we should ask to attend this luncheon. Looks like we will have a good representation from city, county, gazette, recycling, solid waste, Parks & Recreation and Laurel. Helen will mail any information that we receive from Keep America Beautiful to everyone so we are all informed. The next decision to make at this meeting was if we wanted to do the project for the United Day of Caring that Helen and two city employees investigated. The project was to clean and maintain the median in front of Newman School. Motion was made by Lisa that we do the project with the help of Day of Caring and the City for some supplies. Motion carried. Dan Miller jokingly made a suggestion that we have a cart to push in parades and that we should have a message that says "Join Bright n' Beautiful" Help Keep America Beautiful — call 248-6617. Helen did not take this as a joke but as a good suggestion. She will look into this possibility for the July 4 Laurel parade. She also will keep all informed about the 2010 KAB Beautification In -Kind Grants Program. Business for our next meeting will be: Helen' review, budget process, Awards Luncheon details. Meeting adjourned at 1:00 PM Submitted by Helen Johnson, Ex. Dir.
