BUILDING FUND
The Building Fund: I’m
glad to see in the notes from the ladies’
meeting that a get together of the reactivated building committee is being
planned. Why now? Well, we are thinking about throwing a nice amount
of money into the fund. That’s great! However, it is my understanding
that the building fund, set up when we started the Kroger card promotion, was
restricted. The funds could not be used for any reason other than to purchase
a building. I’m sure that I will be sitting on a cloud playing a harp
instead of drinking a harp, when we have enough funds to purchase a
building. I requested that there be a building committee with
representatives from each group. I think we need to look at the feasibility
of renting a building. The insurance cost, the cost for a license, the cost
for utilities, etc etc. I think we need to look at what size building we
will be able to support. We need to look at what activities we will use to
support the building. Two nights a month will not work. If the men want to
get together for sporting events ala a sports bar and the ladies want to
have a tea room, we better figure out a way to accommodate both groups.
I guess that that there will be a building committee meeting at Greg
Cassidy’s office, 5217 Monroe St. on either October 2 or October 10 at 7:30.
You will have to give Greg a call at 419-944-1238 for information about the
meeting.
