The meeting was called to order by Donna Schenkel at 7:10 pm in the Arts and Crafts Room
of the Senior Center.
Minutes were reviewed and approved by all.
Treasurer reported that all grants have been paid out for last year. Currently our
balance reflects the Grant money for this year plus $76 left over from last year.
May Reception
Donna reserved the room. Nancy will check on the projector. Mary Ann will contact
Jason Lewis, Brad Jones and the MCC rep, Arreen Andrew to invite them to speak.
Nancy has updated the invitation and with a few changes, it was approved. We will
invite grantees to speak briefly about their projects. The slide show will be updated as
pictures come in. Food and beverages will be arranged by Jane, Nora and Rose. We
will have a business meeting at 6:00 and then set up for the 7:00 reception.
Donna asked everyone to think about recruitment for new members, as Jane, Beth,
Mary Ann and Megan's terms are expiring June 30. Hopefully, they will remain with the
Council for another tens, but it would be good to have more staggering of terms. Some
suggestions included using the digital notice system at the library, Volunteer Night at the
library, and seeking a high school senior who might be interested. Other ideas were the
websites such as Reading Rant and Wonder Women of Reading.
The meeting adjourned at 7:45pm.
