Meeting Minutes, April 2, 2008

5:00 at the Tipikiva in the patio of Adobe Moon Restaurant

Welcome Rotarians and Guests

After the pledge and the prayer announcements were made.

We are proud of the sign we put up during the Great Day
of service, but we were not able to complete the painting
of it.

SPRING FLING BINGO IS THIS WEEKEND. We need everyone to
pitch in at 12 o'clock to set up the hall. The City Council
did not give us a waiver or reduction of the rental fee.
David remarked that our appearance and solicitation of a
waiver has caused the council to consider changing the
way they handle waiver requests. Everyone is asked to
turn over the prizes they have collected to Dr. J. so he
can prepare the prize list for the bingo day. Amy will
coordinate the prize groupings.

CINCO DE MAYO FIESTA fundraiser is coming up next.
The group discussed the cascarones, the chicken bingo, the
turtle races, the loteria, and the entertainment.
Pinatas are needed for the pinata party and folkloric
dancers have been hard to line up this late in the year.
Marfa Theater has agreed to present the Battle of Pueblo
re-enactment on the lawn of the courthouse. The fiesta
will start at 6 P.M. and end at 10:00 P.M. because it
is on a Sunday.

Rudy offered his treasurer's review of the Rotary Accounts.
We have to think ahead to the scholarships (1000), the Ryla
awards ($950) and the exchange student fee ($450).

The meeting adjourned with the bells of St. Mary's.
