Treasurer's Report
- Pizza is doing well, however would we like to rethink Mr. Sub - perhaps consider sushi or other options for next year
- Blinds and murals weren’t something that we could get to this year - budget allocated for the mural and blinds to be carried over until next school year
- Refresh of the tarmac area - purchase two benches, backboard/rims for basketball nets, paint for the kindergarten pen, consider starting a fund for playground maintenance, look into an additional bike rack for the school if students express a need
- $500 deposit for Fire It Up BBQ - year end BBQ
- $1100 for start up - anything that is not used, allocate towards a playground fund in the fall
