Carol suggested that in the future any agenda items be sent to Donna Montgomery. Carol and Donna will discuss the items and have an agenda for the next meeting. We are still recruiting for a Vice President. If anyone is interested, please let Carol Chapman know. Lupe Gonzales discussed the meal plan for the JV team and the varsity team at length. It was decided that for the first game on Friday, August 26, that Coach Ivy would provide food for the girls. For the following games, we decided to go with a $5 meal for the girls. It will be Jason’s Deli. I am attaching a sheet that explains the meals. While it is hot we will do the Community Select Box and as it get cooler we will do the Hot Pasta. I am also attaching a schedule of the 2016 Football Schedule. Please high light the games in which your daughter will need a meal. The highlighted schedule as well as the money will need to be turned in on Friday, August 26. For example, if you choose a meal for your daughter for 6 games, you will need to send $30. I will let you know who the money needs to go to as soon as I have it confirmed. Next we talked about fund raisers. Carol had sent an email to you regarding the fan cloth fundraiser. It is t-shirts, hoodies, etc., that the girls can sell to students, family, teachers, neighbors, etc. Next, Lupe showed us some decals that she had made and it would be an easy fund raiser for the girls to sell them. Lupe is also, going to bring a yard sign to our next meeting so that we look at it and decide is we want to sell them as well. We can sell them to our girls and we may even get some made up for the footballs players, and other sports and sell them as well. Kendra Scott jewelry may be another fund raiser that we will do. Lupe is finding out more information on that. Another bake sale was also mentioned. We discussed that Carol, Latasha, and Darlene meet with Mr. Ward to see if could work the concession stand and make money. Carol will work to set up that meeting with Mr. Ward. A merchandise table outside of the concession stand may be a possibility for selling the decals and the fan cloth items. Up next was Coach Ivy giving up an update on Top Golf. If she can get a check cut in time the girls will go to Top Golf on Monday. Coach Ivy also reminded everyone about cheer pictures that will be taken on August 29 at 7am. For the team picture the girls would wear their hair up in a tight pony tail; for individual pictures, the girls can wear choose how they wish to wear their hair. The Booster Tab is now up on the website and she will be adding pictures going forward. Coach is still asking for help for someone to cut up fruit for the girls on game night. The girls will have their own black water jugs for water and if other girls are needing them, they can be purchased at Academy, Wal-Mart, or HEB for about $4. Next we spoke about senior night. It will be on the first varsity game, Friday, August. 26. Lupe is going to make a sash for each girl. And the booster club is going to do a basket for the girls. There are 6 seniors. Coach Ivy is going to send an email to the girls and ask them what some of their favorite things are, so that we can put them in the basket. I am buying the baskets and Lupe is buying the tissue paper. We fill the baskets at the next booster club meeting. It was brought up that their little sisters will give the basket to the seniors at the August 26 pep rally. The little sisters will also make a poster for each of the senior cheerleaders. Coach Ivy said that she has plenty of pictures that they can add to the posters. One last thing that Coach Ivy said is that she would like a cheerleading banner. Lupe will find out the cost and get back to us. Other group are doing a teacher appreciation event for the teachers. We discussed a coffee and pastries possibly on Friday, August 26. It would be BYOM—Bring your own mug. We will have our next booster club meeting on Wednesday, August 24 at Connally. It will be in the cheer room. There is a lot going on and I hope to see of you there. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks Donna Montgomery Secretary
