Eocecutive Committee Meeting May 8, 1976 Randy Myers house

The meeting was opened at 8:00 p.m.

A movement was made by Henry Rodriguez. and seconded by Sandy Mann to have the Bylaws printed within the next few months.

A change was contemplated in one section of the Bylaws and Willard Scott said that it would create no problem for Jerry Nettles ( the printer).

Randy Myers called the health department in regard to the Harper House. He was concerned about unsanitary conditions including debris and rats. He had not heard whether anything had been done and was wondering if anyone else had. General discussion followed on the dangers of purported rats,

Randy Hyers mentioned two members of the Board of Directors, Ben Blankenship and Bernie Lucas, who bad ceased attending meet­ings. He wondered if perhaps they should be given the opportunity to resign. It was pointed that a year remains of Bernie's term and two years of Ben's. ( The B?'r¾rflt~fr)f Di rec tors ~onsi sts . presently of Earl Hall, Monica i:4-erlu-n, Henry H.odr1guez, Bernie Stull, Ben Blankenship and Bernie Lucas. )i Willard Scott suggested Ellie] v~~ for the Board.

" ivt,·:...~

Ways of attracting new members were discussed. Mary Millsback suggested neighborhood coffee klatches.

The next topic raised was the picnic. Randy Myers suggested printing in the Downs_ that kids should wear shoes for safety reasons as well as needing them for relay races and pony rides. Sandy Mann mentioned that ponies rented for $50 for 2 hours and $75 for 3 hours. Since it was estimated that a pony could give JO rides an hour, 3 hours seemed best. After discussion, the picnic people decided to seek neighborhood volunteers to make cupcakes and pay them for the materials used. Door prizes were to come from the Dive Shop.

Further discussion followed on the ponies. Willard Scott said that three years ago pony rides were stopped because the stable refused to provide them without insurance provided by the Citizens Association. This was not affordable. Permission slips will be required for pony rides, and are to be printed in the Downs. Extra ones should be made available for those who forget to bring them.

Sandy Mann, the picnic chair~erson, has arranged for helium balloons to be given away. Randy Myers will be in charge of distributing them.
