Treasurers Report – Hank Zaleski

• Hank informed the Board that…

-        The receipts for December were about $1200 while the expenses were about $2500

-        A donation of $250 was received from the Tice family which will be recorded in the Memorial Fund

-        The year-end assets were about $2000 more than a year ago. This is a result of the credit taken for interest in the I-Bond and CD, operating at a surplus in Operations of about $700, and having about 15 more members having paid dues than this time last year.

-        The positive asset situation led to a discussion about the new carpet. After some discussion, the Board approved $3500 for carpet replacement with a stipulation that it MUST happen after the wing bowl as the members might get a little messy that day.

-        The report was approved

 

 

Old Business

• Dave mentioned the great job done by Jay and Abe on the Christmas Luncheon. There was unanimous agreement on this. Abe said Jay did all the work. Jay mentioned that we have to drink more as we have to spend $500 at Tavistock in order to avoid a service charge

 

• Coffee Klatch – Jack Lardis discussed efforts to help the town sculpture project by creating a picture book and asked how the 65 club can help.
