The bills were approved on motion by Rae Jackson seconded by Charlie Langham and unanimously carried. Under old business Larry said he had sent his man out to the stadium and repaired what they could but that one of the ticket booths really needs to have the whole roof repaired. Phil said he knows about it but hopes to get through the season before we have to do something. The board discussed having all the groups that use the fields send us a report of how the program was run and the participation. It was decided that the secretary would write and contact them. The budget was discussed for next year and Larry had gotten with Richard Bass and they had figures to present to the board. After much discussion on what we are going to be doing next year a motion was made by Larry Thomas, seconded by Stanley Fant to approve the budget as presented (copy attached) for the coming year. The board discussed at length what they hoped to accomplish in the coming year and what would be required in the way of funding. They discussed the possibility of hiring a full-time director and the secretary was directed to write cities of comparable size to get information we might need in helping us make a decision. The building to house equipment in was discussed again and Mike Ford said he would try to stress how important this is and that we are willing to pay for it. Mike was told it would take $47,000 for a 40 X 80 building, with restroom, insulated and 12 ft. ceiling. That we have bought all the equip- ment that we are going to need for a while but we need to have a place to put it all. The board said again that they need to make a priority list. They also talked about getting some publicity for the different programs that we have, that we are doing things but most of it goes unadvertised and unnoticed by the general public. There being no further business, meeting was duly adjourned.
