Treasurer Report
Cheryl Robbins reported. The $500 given to Missoula Children’s Theater was paid back and returned to the contingency fund.

Gary Etchemendy reported. The equipment is here. It is being stored at the school. Installation will take place in spring when the weather improves, hopefully sometime in April. Would like to have it completed before Family Fun Night. Gary will pick an installation date and a back up date in case of rain. Will try and get Boy Scouts to come and help,

NEW BUSINESS
Family Fun Night
Katie Wampler suggested we have a Civil War Falcon Style theme for FFN this year. One pod will be Beavers, one pod Ducks and one pod Falcons. Each pod will decorate a card board cut out. It was agreed that this would be a good theme. We will be serving ice cream. It was suggested we use green/yellow and orange/black sprinkles. Katie Wampler volunteered to be the committee head.
Other committee heads are:
Chele Condello for Baskets
Katie Wample for Food and Decorations
