Old Business
- Fruit Sales - The club decided to wait until the May meeting to discuss about giving the club members’ families a discount for boxes of fruit they purchase.
New Business
- Middle Park Fair Ad
- The club approved purchasing a $45 ⅛-page ad to thank the office staff and support the fair. This year’s book will be in black and white, so Shelly redesigned the ad accordingly:
