Approval of Minutes & Approval

At the start of each meeting in future, we need to approve the last meeting’s “Meeting Minutes.”

A member says: “I move to approve the m-d-yy Meeting Minutes.”

Another member says: “I second.”

The chair says: “It is moved and seconded to approve the m-d-yy minutes.”

Then, we vote. If we get majority “Ayes” then we can be done with the Meeting Minutes.

This is also the process for any time we vote on something (like spending)

Casting Call!

I’ll need 7-10 students willing to read lines! Filming will have to be done at home by parent and submitted to me! This is for our “kick off” video to jump start our Fun Run!

Please email me by Thursday night 8pm: vp.bringhurstpto@gmail.com with your interest! First come first serve! YOU (the parent) will have to film your child reading the assigned lines–and just send me your best cut! There may be props–so we will have to schedule a pick up time.

Filming deadline: Monday, September 23rd
