RI-Milan Booster Club Minutes from the January 8, 2015 Meeting
The meeting was called to order by President Kevin Guthrie. We had two thank-yous,
one from Ed Lillis for the donation for the Hall of Fame and one from Bob Carpentier’s
family for the donation made in his name to the Hall of Fame..
The minutes from the December meeting were read, there were no corrections or
additions. Dave Rockwell made a motion to accept the minutes, 2nd by Eldon
Samdbman, and they were accepted.
Rock Shop: Dave reported he did well on the afternoon of the Alleman game when he
opened the Rock Shop for teachers/staff (about $400 worth of business). He has a lot of
inventory left but there are a number of Big 6 games coming up in January and
February. The Rock Shop is in the black for the year!
Concessions: Kevin noted things have been going pretty well.
Treasurers Report: The Report was read (it was noted the first four checks were all for
the Hall of Fame), and Dave made a motion to accept the Treasurers Report, 2nd by Bob
Blomgren. The motion carried and the Report was accepted.
Old Business:
Progress continues to be made on the sign – it has been erected and the top part is lit
up, however they still need to connect it correctly so as to be able to post messages.

made a motion back in October to donate $100, which was tabled. Dave made a motion
to execute the donation, 2nd by Bob B, and the motion passed
