The Board did not see anything wrong with this, just work it out. Al asked what the Board felt about closing the South Gate at the football stadium as there were very few people who used this gate on the visitor's side. Discussion led to feeling that it should stay open, and further opening a gate behind the concession stand to have a way for people parking behind the stadium to enter without walking so far. It was decided that we should get four Port-O-Lets to place at the stadium for the season, to be placed where needed. There being no further business, meeting was duly adjourned.
