5. Scholarship Committee

      Scholarship committee has been formed. Applications are due April 27 and  committee will meet after this to review the applications.  

6. Trophy Case

      Discussion about the state of the trophy case near the gym entrance. Don DiFelice  noted that this is a high traffic area and vandalism occurs. The trophy case either  needs to be cleaned up or we can look into having a new trophy case built.  Several members noted that this might be a good project for an Eagle Scout.  Debbie Webster and Deb Stephenson were going to look into this possibility.  

7. Varsity Jackets

      New jackets will be ordered in the new school year. Current Varsity players who  already have the old style will be given the opportunity to purchase a new jacket.  

8. New Business

      Debbie Webster noted that the stipend given to the different sports to pay for  paper goods etc for the end of the season banquets is not sufficient to cover the  cost of these products. The committee voted to increase the stipend for all sports  by $25, starting in Fall 2007. 

Meeting adjourned at 8:00pm
