Meeting called to order at 7PM by Melissa Miller
Sue asked whether we could talk about Parks meetings during the brick-fest meeting without advertising. Pat explained this is the brick-fest meeting and not parks.


Discussion was made on the mailing for the brick-fest and events through the post office. Everyone went over possible flyer and corrections were made and suggestions as an eye catcher. Pat said if the cost was not too expensive she will have it printed outside, otherwise Pat would do herself. Mailing will be done as soon as possible. Hopefully by the first of the week.  Pat said just to have Robinson, West Bolivar and Bolivar residents for a total count of 1011 people for a cost of $179.00.


Discussion was made on issuing a ticket for everyone who comes and everyone who buys something. This way everyone gets something and is fair and legal under SGOC.  It was decided to put the free ticket over the postage paid stamp.
