The April UMV meeting started at 7:15 and was held at the VFW in Hyde Park. There were 3 board members and 10 members present.<\/p>\n
The treasurers report was read and accepted. There was a brief discussion\/recap of the March meeting since there was no secretary report.<\/p>\n
Scholarships:<\/strong><\/p>\n Donnie has received some scholarship applications- we plan to meet some night in May at Donnies as we have in the past. The date will be picked at the May meeting. We plan on getting a lasagna from Costco’s to try for dinner since we are considering that as an option for the Harley Raffle.<\/p>\n Toy Run:<\/strong><\/p>\n Hartigans sent a letter asking if we were in need of their services this year- offering discount for multiple units. Donnie will call to see what price they give him as a “regular” person before we call them as UMV. Kevin said he would check with some people he knows about prices.<\/p>\n Mike will ask the food vendor to donate a portion of his food sales to the Shriners.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Harley Raffle:<\/strong><\/p>\n There was more discussion on food options and possible location change so we could sell more tickets and get a bigger bike. Decided it might be something to look into for another year. Would stick to what we know this year, try to make a decision on the food in the next couple of months. The VFW auxillary was also mentioned as an option. Kevin will talk to his sister about possbile options\/cost. Don and Marje will talk to Green Mountain and Wilkins when they return about prices\/options for this the 2014 bike. Still looking for raffle item- set limit of $100-$150. Thought about a $100 gift cert to who ever we purchase the bike from if we don’t find anything else.<\/p>\n Kingdom Thunder:<\/strong><\/p>\n Lots of discussion as to whether we have the man power\/interest\/committment to continue with the event. It was decided that we would push the event as a “lite” Kingdom thunder for the next 2 years to keep the interest and the weekend. It would be billed more toward the 1 day event, with a shorter ride (done at 2pm instead of 4pm) with a BBQ and local band until 7pm. Once the hotels were up, push for the 3 day event more like what was at Cedarwood. This would keep the cost down and hopefully allow for more of a donation.<\/p>\n We are going to ask for a meeting with Burke next week to discuss loose ends:<\/p>\n 1. who responsible for what- set up, clean up of BBQ, garbage removal Person at the chronicle willing to sell ads and sponsorships for a small %. Decided that was worth the cost since none of us have the time to do what needs to be done. <\/p>\n Gabrielle will check with memphremagog press about getting posters for next week so we can have them at Ted’s rally.<\/p>\n The Next meeting will be May 1 at Orleans Legion starting at 7pm. Hope to see you there.
