SECRETARY & TREASURER REPORTS:
The Secretary and Treasurer reports were summarized by Phil.  As always, we are in good financial standing thanks to free coaching, free  pool, and parent assistance with fundraising income.  It is very good to have a cushion so when the day comes when we will be paying more than just Jay for his coaching, we will have something to work with.  That will also entails meals, mileage, hours at meets that we presently only pay Jay.  So, even though it seems we are well off it can be wiped out real quick. The most recent fundraiser had Clewien’s reaching the highest profit level.  They were awarded the Wii from the team and the guitar hero from Sass.

THANK OUR SPONSORS:
Another area that keeps us alive and well is the sponsorships from  various businesses/individuals in our area.  Please look over the list and kindly thank those who help us.  Many of those sponsors have come forward for over twenty years.  Please contact Mary Lou Neubauer if you feel you know of a business that you think would still like to be our sponsor.  She was in charge of this area and will know if she already contacted them.  If not, she will.

1.An idea was presented about having a lock-in.  We will check with USA swimming to see how our insurance would cover    something like this.  Bob Collins said he would take charge of it if it materializes.

OFFICIAL BBSC TEAMWEAR:

ELECTION RESULTS:
Results of elections were:

President:  Phil Sass

Vice-President:  There was a tie between Bill Clewien and Lori Ryf.
Mary Lou Neubauer was checking with Matt Chier, the city attorney, to see how to approach a tie.  Would she as a board member vote? Would everyone have to vote again? ...etc. But prior to receiving an answer and telling Bill about the tie at the pool, Bill simply said to let Lori Ryf take over.
