New
Business
1) Suba: I recently acquired
free space in the Middletown Fire House for my son’s cub scout troop
and my contact there told me that any non profit
community group in the Middletown Township area can use the firehouse
for free since it’s in their charter – this includes for fundraiser
dinners. We would be able to hold canton meetings in the community
room if we wanted, and if we wanted more space, such as for a tournament
or a feast, we would be able to use the fire engine bays. We’d be able
to seat 150-200 people. I think there might be a modest rental fee
for some of our activities depending on how they’re classified by the
firehouse. I would like to make a motion to discuss requesting space
for canton meetings with the intention of relocating the meetings to
there.
Firehouse in Middletown has been
scanned for possible Canton meetings or other meetings. Keegan would
feel ‘funny’ there (issues of staff?) Kitchen
is not big enough for feast prep. Fencing would be good there and can
be held in one of the bays if weather was bad.Members see no benefit
to changing
site for monthly meeting at this time. Suba can set up a walk-thru for
other
members to see it.Is it ‘dry’ or ‘ wet’? Unknown. 2) Middletown Township Day DEMO is May 7th, 2005. A person who is a bead
maker can participate at this but would need a dedicated tent
3) Damiana is accepting YULE reservations. Forms were handed out
Comments for the good of the
Canton
“Let us move forward as a group of friends…no backdoor comments anymore…speak
to me (Keegan) privately if you have any issues.” -Keegan
Meeting Adjourned at 8:35 pm Next
Meeting is scheduled for Monday December 6, 2004 at Elenora's house.
