Treasurers Report- Harold Meyers Cash on hand is lower than last year due to the extra cost with helmet reconditioning. The registration for the snack trailer was found. A CPA has our taxes from the previous 2 seasons. She will be getting back to Harold by next month. A donation from Eric Rhoads photography was received.

Concessions- Mary Anne Angstadt The trailer was moved to Players Bar in Birdsboro to be cleaned. Thank you to Jim Stein for moving it for us. The Sports boosters will be able to run the snack stand during most of our games this season. We will be giving them a payment for every day they run it.

New Business- The board had a meeting at the beginning of February to look at changes that need to be made to the by-laws that we were still using from before we separated from BYS. The changes to the by laws can be read on the website.

The cheer coaches expressed concern and would like to have more votes. They cited the football coaches get voting assistants. It was explained that football and cheer receive the same amount of votes.

Lori Pence objects to the 6 meeting rule that is proposed. She states that 6 meeting are to much to become a member. It was adjusted to 5 meetings and be able to vote on the 6th. The reason the board changes this bylaw is because we would like to get more people involved in the meeting. We would like to see people show up at the meetings so they can have more of a say in the league. But by only attending 3 meetings during the year there is not enough of an involvement or knowledge of what is discussed at meetings.

The first meeting was adjourned at 8:25.

Brain Kazmork called a second meeting to order at 8:26 to vote on the bylaw changes. We are trying to get the changes in effect before the beginning of the season. The changes were read again and voted on with no objections.

A vote will again be taken at the next meeting. The time and location of the March meeting will be announced. Our regularly 3rd Sunday meeting falls on the Easter holiday. The second meeting was adjourned at 8:45pm. Attendance-
