interested parties, coaches and potential volunteers to begin coordination
of the program.

c) A. Haras was unable to reach L. Korpf regarding the Walther website. She will
make another attempt this week .

d) S. Berg reported that the Booster mailing has been completed. We spent
approximately $600.00 in postage to mail out same. It was noted that a PIC hour schedule was supposed to be included in the package but was not. We will need to watch for that next year. Follow up phone calls have not yet been scheduled. It was decided that perhaps we would be more successful to utilize Walther students to make these phone calls. K. Slechta will speak with
Mr. Pederson to see if he will identify students that might be both interested and able to perform this task. J. Edwards will contact D. Gillingham regarding use of the Walther phone bank and facilities. D. Schroeder will develop script for the children to use. Target timing for this event is directly after Labor Day.
