1 Scooter Box Fund raising -

This is a small plastic docking block to park a scooter on in the garage.  Their system is a completely on-line and allows kids to sell this product by sending out emails to friends/relatives (no door to door).  They had a video display.  $9 commission to the club per scooter box sale.  Each child has their own link, the link can be by first name (and number) and team name.

Retail price: $18 ($9 comes back to us). 

Also available to come to the tournament and give a $500 donation to have a tent.

Bill sent out an email to everyone with the notes.  Bill brought a sample of the water bottle that the park district wants to encourage.  Ask Steve about Best Buy donation to the club. 
5 Traveling -

Russ had a Nike catalog with things we could get with our $800 credit.  Not much in the way of eqiupment in the catalog.

Looking at fees for next year.

NISL wants a 5v5 game for U8B.  We don't think we can afford to have a team at this level with so few players.  NISL max roster is 12 players, but we envision playing time being a major issue with so many players.

Michelle Burgess is going to run the pool party this year.
6 Tournament -

Chris put on flyers for the tournament at the IWSL meeting.
Chris will be more flyers for the NISL meeting (probably 400 more copies).
