Meeting Minutes March 8, 2013

Meeting called to order at 6:30

Old Business-

Terra Cycle-We need new bins for collection of juice pouches in the classroom. Kristen will shop around.

Sweet Shoppe Fundraiser-Mr. Soule had a discussion with some staff that were concerned about the candy sale conflicting with the Welless Policy.  After getting more information they ended up being OK with the sale.

The cards came printed with a message saying the student with the most sales would get a gift certificate to spend at the Sweet Shoppe.

Discussion- Does it send the wrong message to let a student buy a large amount of candy?  Could we change the prize to something such as a Wildcat watter bottle or coupon to the book fair.

Vote: All in favor to change the candy sale prize to a water bottle and/or gift card-Approved

Cook Book Fundraiser-We will do one more push for recipes to be submitted for the cookbook.  We hope to have them printed in time for Mothers Day.
