Decorations for Christmas Dance.  We need volunteers to decorate the dining tables in the basement for the pot-luck dinner.  We need

 November dances: 11/3- $7; 11/10- (-$14); 11/15- $31; 11/17- $114 (?).

Spring Dances:

  which often causes problems in transportation.  (Drew made motion, Ken seconded, passed with vote of five to two.)

  (Beth made motion, Drew seconded, passed unanimously)  Caller Susan Moffett, band Contrarians.)
  We will have to get about 45 persons to pay for weekend to break even.  Leesa will help Clint & Kathy to organize.

Belle Dance 2004:  Motion: The Motion was made to once again do the Belle Dance Sept. 17, 18, 19, 2004 with the fund raisers of yard
 sale and silent auction which made this year's successful.  (Motion made by Ken, all unaniomous)
 We will immediately begin getting band and caller so we can start publicity early.

Publicity:  The schedule for the next six months of dances is pretty well set. We will have a flyer printed as soon as possible so we can
 get our advertising started in a timely fashion.

NOTE:  Norm Stewart called during the meeting.  He was unable to attend for reasons of health. He is actively lining up the materials to
 make sound baffles for the room at Church of the Advent. This is being done with the Church's full approval. A group of dancers has
 also cleaned the hall in a three hour session and all are pleased with the results. Norm also said that he is in favor of having the Potato
 Run Dance, the Belle Dance and the dance in April at David Lazar's.

Next meeting January 5, 2004 at St. Andrew's at 6 p.m.

These minutes were kept by Ken Shepherd, Board Secretary.
