Old Business
- Fruit Fundraiser
- $6100 in fruit sales was deposited this week. There’s still more to do.
- The peach delivery date is tentatively set for Friday, August 19th. Mark your calendars to be available!
- Tish will ask Phil about when the final count of peach boxes is due; this date will determine when the final sales are due to Shelly. Thus far, it seems that Krempins and Mathis’ are the only ones who yet have payments to collect.
- Tish will also ask Phil if any boxes of “seconds” are available for purchase.
- The club voted to order an extra 15 boxes of peaches to sell at time of delivery.
