Dave Kawamoto introduced Mike West,
who is the new co-Athletic Director.
Minutes from the June 5, 2006 and
August 14, 2006 meetings were approved. Motion made by Shelley
Mossman and seconded by Holly Hill.
Treasurer's Report: Judy Hill read
aloud the Thank-you card received from Judy Namanny for the retirement
gift that the Boosters gave to her in June.
Twelve new
memberships have been received so far this school year.
Approximately
$1200 in income has been received so far in cloth sales
and memberships.
No other financial
activity this month.
President's Report: Dave reviewed the
fund raising activities which the Boosters have held in recent years,
including memberships, cloth sales, Football barbecues, and the
silent auction/golf tournament. Need to determine whether or not
we want to have the golf tournament this year, and
if so where it will be held and who will chair the committee.
Cloth Report: We will need to reorder
the maroon sweatshirts, as our inventory is low. We could
possibly switch
to a new color...gray with maroon lettering? Motion made by
Holly Hill to allocate up to $1000 to purchase more
sweatshirts. Seconded by Shelley Mossman, and passed
unanimously.
Aris suggested that the sweatshirts
be displayed and order forms be available in the student store so that
the
students can order more easily.
Athletic Report: Craig Ellegood
reported on the Fall sports. Water polo is under way and doing
well. In a recent tournament the team was 18th out of 32 teams.
Football is
undefeated thus far.
Field Hockey and
Volleyball are doing well.
Cross country
started their season with a meet at Lynbrook last week.
Tennis has not
started yet.
All coaching slots
for the year are now filled except for assistant track and field
coaches and JV badminton
coaches.
Student Report: Nadia Basilio and
Aris Harutyunyan are the ASB Athletic Commissioners for the 2006-2007
school year. They reported that they have sent out emails
to the coaches asking for nominations for the
Athletes-of-the-Month for September. They want to try
to increase student awareness of this award as well as
improve the presentation of the award. They plan to
announce the awards at the Fall Sports Awards Night, and
to give the recipients a CHS lanyard as well.
Fall Sports Awards Night is scheduled
for November 21st at 7 p.m. Craig Ellegood suggested that in order to
try
to get a better turnout, the Boosters could do a barbecue before
the program, perhaps at 6 p.m. Nancy will contact Eric Walukiewicz to
check the dates and see if we can do the
barbecue an hour prior to the awards program.
New Business: There are 5 home
football games for which we need to schedule people to work at the
barbecues.
Carol Scibetta will collate the names of members from the
membership forms. Holly Hill will set up the
barbecues, do the shopping and staff the JV games. Nancy
Boyle will
staff the Varsity games.
Football, Wrestling and Aquatics have
turned in invoices to the Athletic Department which will now be turned
over to Judy Hill for payment (wish list funds
allocated last
year). We still need invoices from Field Hockey,
Baseball, Tennis and Track and Field.
Next meeting on October 9, 2006.
Meeting adjourned at 8:15 p.m.
