The first item on the agenda was the update on the catering by Albert Lee. He said that they would prepare pork ribs, chicken, baked beans, cole slaw, deviled eggs, mac & cheese, drinks (consisting of tea, leomonade, water), and deserts (cakes & pies). They would also furnish hot dogs and buns. Esther said that she had some tablecloths we could use if the caterer doesn’t supply them. It was mentioned that Jackie McDermott wants to do corn on the cob on the grill. The price for the picnic would be $10.00 per person.
The heads of each family is to get a count of how many people would be attending each event and be responsible for collecting their money and turning it in to Barry. All moneys for the events and T-Shirts are due June 20, 2016. Stanley has prepared a sheet for keeping up with what each person has paid and what they will attend. I think it was previously posted.
