Committee Reports:

Treasurer Report:

Balance in checking is $4880.60.

This is not a firm number however because there is outstanding income and expenses from the choir's Louisville trip. There is also outstanding income from the sale of the Might Duck's game tickets; to date, we have received $396.00 for the ticket sales. Jerry will contact Mary Beth about the outstanding expenses and income from these events.

FANS paid $25.00 per student towards the $38.00 per trip cost for Louisville Choir trip.

Bridgette Raffenberg, PTA president will submit a bill to FANS for the cost of the bus to take the choir to Mt. Notre Dame for their competition. It was unanimously agreed that FANS should cover this expense.

 

Music Director's Report:

Jerry Meyer updated the Board in Mary Beth Khamis' absence.

The concert choir trip to Louisville was a great success. The choir performed at a nursing home, visited the Louisville Slugger Museum, the art museum, toured the opera house and watched a performance of Figaro.

The Concert Choir will perform at church on June 2 at 1:15. This concert will be preceded by a cookout after 11:30 mass. There is no cost for parishioners to eat at the cookout. Donations will be accepted during the concert.

Theresa McGoron is organizing all of the food, plates, etc.
