Agenda Items / Discussions (THIS MONTH)

● Costume estimate and approval to move forward

● Arrangement clearance issues● Dale Syverson coaching in

2020● Membership Plan

DIRECTOR REPORT (LAST MONTH)

● Costumes -- Need a new storage location. “Due to family needs of space I can no longer store chorus costumes. They need to go somewhere else by next week -end. Linda Sue”

● Cabaret show Performance Fundraiser○ Showcase quartets and small groups.○ We could use some extra funds quick with riser deadline looming,

etc.○ I think we could pull off a cabaret show in late March or early April if

we wanted to... it would be tight, but ... money.○ We could invite some non competing quartets, or maybe some other

guests (men's quartets) just for exposure/fun.○ To include a new fun live fundraising thing that requires one kind of

high end prize. More interactive than a raffle.■ This is the game we did. For small prizes (karaoke machine), buy in

would be cheap - like $5. But if we could have something like a timeshare donated, you can have buy in be higher. We used mardi gras beads, and there was a limit of 5 necklaces (at $20 each), so each time you were wrong, you’d take off one bead necklace. Last person standing with a necklace wins. Maybe you’ve seen/done this before? http://www.seattle-charity-auctioneer.com/heads-or-tails/. This weekend they gave away a suite and front row tix for an event.

○ Could do it at a small venue. Or somewhere like Portuguese hall.○ Non performing members would either pay to get in or volunteer.○ Would be better if we could do food/beverage “donation tickets”,

especially if there were booze.○ No big performances coming up with the chorus. Dec - Aug is a long

time to go without a show.○ Just something to consider. Could be easy to put together.○ Cheap tix, like 20 bucks?○ Could replace wine women and song?○ Midnight thoughts from Orlando.○ Sara will start looking at venues that can hold an audience of around

200 people

5 Business Development – Jennifer French

Agenda Items / Discussions (THIS MONTH)

● Riser campaign● Rummage sale● December nights manuel

BIZ DEV REPORT (LAST MONTH)

● Ideas for Raise the Risers Campaign○ The riser fund is now at $6,300○ Total of $15,000 needs to be raised by May 31st,

2018. then we will get our grant of $20,000 to purchase risers

○ 1st idea-■ Kerri Leisure suggested that members buy

their "property" by paying a minimum amount. There could be die cuts of houses or something like that which could serve as a visual for how many members had participated. Then if the choir reached the pre-set goal (50%, 75%, whatever), the extra money that I and other members had pledged would kick it

○ 2nd idea-■ Jennifer and Julie Berryman thought of a

monopoly theme using houses. They could go on a big Sweet Adeline board (Harmony Place, Tenor Avenue, Coning Railroad...you get the idea). That my be way to complex and expensive to create

○ 3rd idea-■ Buying your "spot" on the riser. We could

have different color spots and each color could be a different amount (pink 25.00, green 50.00, red 75.00, yellow 100.00 or whatever) Again, if we have a board (Julie Berryman had the idea of using the trifold board like our kids use for science fair so it is easy to transport) that the circles could be glued to. We may even be able to get a big piece of foam core and out risers and when someone buys their "spot" they can stick it where they want to put it. People could buy several spots or just one

■ Buying the spot for another lady who will one day take my "spot". Kind of a legacy thing if you will. You could still have the pledged money come into play. Like if we had at least 75 spots purchased, then the additional money would be triggered

○ For now Jennifer will email the chorus email list and constant contact list for an incentive idea for the riser campaign. Donate more that $50 and you will get a nameplate on the new risers

SDSA Chorus Management Team (CMT) 3/12/18 Agenda & 2/19/18 Minutes.

○ Will also do an emeritus “legacy” email to get emeritus names on the risers

○ New social media team Meg and Nilene will be posting a Facebook boost for our raise the riser campaign

● Valentine Grams○ 31 Valentine grams were sold○ Generated $1,100 before expenses. $10 was raised

chorus night sale candy and roses○ The budgeted income of $2,500 was not reached

because due to lack of PR/media presence in which we had a limited budget, fliers coming out too late, and lackluster chorus selling/buy in

○ Suggestions for next year■ Earlier PR push starting in January■ Facebook boosted posts■ Press release forms turned in at least 3

weeks before Valentines Day■ Encourage chorus buy in■ Idea- when doing a phone Valentine use

one mobile phone to call and another to record an audio file so they can keep a copy to listen over again

● Chorus Rummage Sale-May 5th● December Nights Manual- still working on this● Debra Rasnick has agreed to come onto CMT as Business
