Work Session:

The board unofficially asking Kevin Burns to bring up to the town asking them to pay for the basketball court. Pat and Marguerite asked Rich Williams about it and if there are grants available.

Float: Tom and the girls – Christmas Story theme - $100 per vehicle truck and trailer – one price – budget approved of $400.00 – reusable items, banner, will  check consignment shops – LED lights – invest in them, plus candy to hand to the kids. Ask the town if we want to be in the firehouse parade. How do we do it if there is a donation to enter?  The 1st year the entry fee is zero.  Next year is a $100 entry fee. It is not a donation.

Rafts – restate sizes – and get prices. Where are you from, aluminum, prices dimensions,  120 feet long 4 feet is a good walk out size. Or to build new ones with a carpenter and buy all of the supplies is cheaper than hiring a company to do it all.
