The next order of business was the Sub-Committee report on the Bandstand presented by Mr. Fotino. He stated there is not enough time to have plans drawn this year, but if they are started now it could possibly be completed in the Fall. He will have a report on the progress in Sept. or Oct. Mr. Giordano went over the Supervisor's Report in detail includ- ing updates on the Summer Programs. He stated he had had a call on the scholarship or fee reduction already. He suggested asking applicant for permission to call the Principal of the school to confirm the applicant is receiving reduced lunches. That would be all the documentation required. Under Old Business Mr. Giordano stated he had gone over all the Summer Programs in the Brochure with L. Wexler and G. Butler. He questioned whether the pool should be opened Memorial Weekend or wait until school was out, stating that there were sufficient funds to open it. Many concerns were brought up on whether or not the pool would be sufficiently utilized during this time, pay for employees if it rains, maintenance of pool and Tot Time Swim. Mr. Giordano stated the Recreation would be responsible for main- tenance until July, also he was not aware of a problem regarding Tot-Time . He would meet with Tom Darrin on this issue. After much discussion M. Williams moved to open the pool weekends from Memorial weekend and daily from June 14, amended June 18. Seconded by R. Fotino 5-0 unanimous 1
