Missing baby swing from upper- park. Ron said the swing and chain are all gone. Last time seen was this past fall. Discussion was made on the swing and Brittany said she has a baby swing we can have. Ron to get from Brittany over the weekend.

Brittany mentioned the little house at the park. Her tenants stated they have seen people sleeping in it. It really needs to come down or put a door on it. Aaron stated he has also seen people coming and going in there. Discussion was made on possible moving closer to concession stand. The house would have to be torn down to move since it is very heavy.

Brittany also asked about porta-john for lower park. She noticed no bathroom for the little kids. Brittany wondered when the porta-johns were being put in. Pat to call Welshon’s to get it placed down there now instead of May.

SGOC fundraiser with Legion.

Melissa went to Legion meeting this past Sunday and asked John if we could do a fundraiser with the Legion. Her idea was doing lottery tickets with them.
Ticket will go out May 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5th. On 7 PM lottery number
Ticket will be May 1, winner 1 roll $10 lottery tickets plus $150
May 2 winner 1 roll $5 lottery tickets plus $150
May 3 winner 1 roll $10 lottery tickets plus $150
May 4 winner 1 roll $5 lottery tickets plus $150
May 5 $500 cash also $100 for 1 number above / or below
Cost of ticket will be $10. Total tickets to sell 500. Legion to sell 250 we sell 250. We will split the profit. If this goes well we will do another ticket before Brickfest. The profit from the ticket sales will cover the cost of “petting Zoo” which will be around $2500. Melissa not sure if they can even come yet for that day. Hopefully we can get her.

Melissa wanted to know if anyone is opposed to calling the Dragon Fly Man and let him know we really cannot afford to do him this year.

Discussion was also made for bouncy houses and dunking booth. Aaron to check with Mr. Decker if he still has the bouncy houses. Pat made board aware that with the bouncy houses we had 2 years ago was almost too much for the current wiring we have. The wires were burnt from so much wattage going through the lines.

Next meeting date May 20, 7 PM

Parks clean-up day will be May 15th 9 – 1 PM. Put notices on pizza boxes and also asking for donations for the parks.

Melissa asked everyone about a snow cone machine that Kathleen has and wanting to sell. She is asking $2000. Everyone discussed and decided it was too much for an older machine (12) years old.

No other business to discuss.
