11 years they mostly served private and charter schools. Um they've had a book fair in um Portal Gables at St. Augustine Church and then they had one in Southwest Ranches in their town hall. Their main mission is to instill a joy of reading in kids um from promoting virtue and love of country through what

11
00:07:39.599 --> 00:07:55.039
they call quoteunquote clean reads um from prek through 8th grade. Um, and they work with different publishers. Harper Collins is Random House. They bring in different authors for kids to know. They do a lot of activities and things like that. Um, if we have it here, we obviously have to discuss when

12
00:07:55.039 --> 00:08:09.919
we would provide the the book fair, uh, what time of the year during what events. We have to present all of that obviously to the board, the council for them to decide if they're going to let us have that as an event if we decide that we want to vote yes on it. Um, but she's going to be giving you more

13
00:08:09.919 --> 00:08:26.400

Wouldn't just be 20% is going to go into our account. We have to have a purpose obviously for them to give us the 20% of the proceeds.

joy of reading in kids and um provide them with um uh books that they will um love to read and we service um uh different schools. We buy from different u publishing companies. We want to make sure that kids become avid readers and

21
00:10:39.920 --> 00:10:55.200
as you know you know the nation's report card has shown a decline in reading. So, we love to make sure that we bring authors and um and we bring um uh different events where um kids can we can get good books in kids hands that

26
00:11:59.839 --> 00:12:15.200
we also have a section for parents um as well because we believe that the best way kids can learn to read is by um having um parents read and they can imitate what they see. So if you have any questions, please let me know and I can send you the presentation Anna later

Thank you guys. Thank you. Take care. >> So she um again one one more time just before we um we vote on well we're going to vote on it later but I just want to say that they did they work mostly with again private and charter schools mostly private Catholic schools. Um that's what they've been working with. I was going to ask her about like some of the titles

30
00:13:06.560 --> 00:13:24.079
of the book. So, she mentioned the publishers at Copper Collins at Random House. >> Oh, this one. >> I was going to ask about the titles of the book and I totally forgot. Um, but I we can ask her for maybe a list of books or the top sellers or something that they want to um >> what's it that they have read children of books

31
00:13:24.079 --> 00:13:40.160
>> which obviously is something that's needed. >> Mhm. Um, a lot of parents would love to buy books and eat background like they actually, you know, they don't have to actually read it beforehand or >> they're expanding into, like I said, communities because they were mostly

32
00:13:40.160 --> 00:13:55.920
working with private charter schools and to expand town. So, Southwest Ranches was the first one that let them have it and if we passed it, it would be a second town. I guess that be >> So, it would be a town book fair. >> A town book fair. Well, has to be% of the approved by the town council. >> Right. Right. Yes. Yes. And then the

33
00:13:55.920 --> 00:14:11.920
question is where where venue like where all those things we'll talk about it because we have it on the agenda but I just wanted to make sure and then if you think of any question we get to that point we'll talk to it. Okay I'm going to move on next to the approval of minutes from last meeting. >> So if you could look it over and then somebody let me know when you want a

34
00:14:11.920 --> 00:15:06.480
motion to accept the minutes. Motion to approve the minutes. Okay, Jessica Ms to approve the minutes. Anybody May 18th second? >> Second. >> Okay, Jack second. All in favor say I. >> I. Anybody? Okay. So motion passes.

35
00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:22.240
Okay. So we accept the minutes. Now, the student member report um if you could fill us in a little with um the little library books distribution because I think you started that. So, if you could tell us what it was about. >> Um I don't know if most of you guys saw but over the summer um a friend I reached out to a friend of mine who I

36
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:37.360
know is finding she was already in the process of like trying to find books to put in little libraries. Um so I went I was going to make them open up. I grabbed I gave her like a medium box and she's already distributing them and I'm just waiting to see when she's available to come back cuz for the most part I'm

37
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:53.759
like pretty open but she said that she wants to keep going during the school year. That's she's like maybe during the summer >> but I told her like yeah like I'll see like we can just make sure that we have like a day to come like after school. >> So she'll have she wants to do it more now during the school. Will there be

38
00:15:53.759 --> 00:16:09.839
other kids that will be helping her or she so she's just going to share it by herself? She she because she like runs like book club >> so I'm not sure she'll >> she's she's >> they're pretty full. I tried to deliver books yesterday. I cleaned out the girls bookshelf.

39
00:16:09.839 --> 00:16:25.040
>> They're full. >> So yeah, maybe like do a round and then >> and then check and see. Yeah, but I don't have a problem with her. Do you guys have no just every time that you want to do it just contact us and make sure somebody opens the shed for you to go in and >> you know and keep us a breast of that.

40
00:16:25.040 --> 00:16:41.199
And what I was going to ask you is if if once we vote if if um you know if we passes and you stay the member um if you could decide or whoever comes in you or whoever they vote for um to continue that maybe expand it to other schools so that we can get rid of maybe the some of

41
00:16:41.199 --> 00:16:56.880
the schools want to hold the book fair. Their school they can use some of our books. Yeah. >> And that's fair. They do a book fair. I don't know. Do we want No. No. We can't. >> Yes we can. I'm just saying like >> that can happen. I think that's 100% going to happen. Oh, because there's a lot because there's a lot of books

42
00:16:56.880 --> 00:17:14.319
there. We need to get them out to get new >> I think if anything book fairs are going to be happening on >> a lot. Okay. >> Well, >> so I'm saying but they want to offer our books is what I'm saying to the community schools. >> Remember we had discussed last year that maybe we could join um when our board

43
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:30.880
member has his nights at the different schools in Miami Lakes, we can set up our table as well. >> Okay. So if you can give us >> with that I don't think we have any like any events for it with our schools. I

44
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:47.919
can double check but we had it last year and we're more so doing our soard. >> Is it going through to K through eight or >> he's done those already? >> Yeah like you've done we're going through all six of 35 schools. So, well, we can look into it. Like I

45
00:17:47.919 --> 00:18:03.440
said, I just want to make the books available for the community. >> Then Aaron Academy already brings books that they distribute >> to those events. Yes. >> I grabbed another box too um for a nonprofit that I'm like I'm interning

46
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:19.360
>> um because what they do is they give like essentials for mothers and babies. And most of the time that's like diapers and formula and that kind of thing, but they have like a little small little book section. And I was like, I I know like I have access to a lot of books. Do you want me to bring because they're having an after school event on August

47
00:18:19.360 --> 00:18:35.360
6th? >> So I grabbed like the biggest box I could find of like K through two books. That's like the because they mostly car like younger aged kids. >> And so yeah, she's super happy and she wanted to know like tell you guys she's so grateful for that everything. >> So that's like I'm saying I think when you put it out to the members to the to

48
00:18:35.360 --> 00:18:50.720
the SGA members schools, let them know that we have books available. if they want to donate them to a nonprofit, if they want to do a book fair, if they want whatever they want to do, we'd be willing to give them books. You know what I'm saying? >> Like a demand, but it's not like where you would think cuz like if I didn't cross specifically, I would have known

49
00:18:50.720 --> 00:19:06.559
that if that was something that important that we could use >> cuz the only two events right now that we have it in school that we give it out in the town that we have is the for Christmas that we do it for the Mrs. Claus reading that we and and the >> mother's >> the mother. There's only two events in the town where we've been invited specifically to come and distribute

50
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:22.240
books. If you ladies can think of any other town event that you want us to distribute books, let me know that you think would work well. >> I think we can do every event. I don't know what >> No, but like you think of that, look at the town list of the get a list of the

51
00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:38.640
town events and see if there are ones that you think would make sense for us to have our table at to distribute books. um act and then that would require you contacting the town uh the the chairs of the boards and then asking them you know if this is something they

52
00:19:38.640 --> 00:19:54.000
would they would want to participate in and then >> you know one of us will go >> maybe the open houses for our town schools the Miami K through eight open house just like a table >> you know just like we're part of the

53
00:19:54.000 --> 00:20:10.400
town that would be a great idea >> so maybe but that has to go through in governmental for us to ask for permission to go do that school. Yes. Yeah. So if you could do that, if you could reach out to the schools, >> the local schools now coming so that they know for upcoming town hall and we could also mention it when the

54
00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:25.200
principles come. >> Yeah. >> That we can provide them if they could let us have a table. But I guess but intergovernmental will be here for that meeting. So I don't know if you want to send the email or if you want us to tell them about it meeting. >> We can do both. >> Do both. Do both. Both. Yeah. >> We'll put out the open house dates and

55
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:41.440
we can ask for permission. Yeah, >> if so you guys can have a table at >> at their open houses. >> Open houses to give out >> to distribute free books here in the town. >> The town schools. >> Um for the calendar, our website has the

56
00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:57.679
event so you guys can look at them there. >> If you want to reach out to any of the committees, the chairs. >> Yeah, to the chair. >> Committee chairs. >> So you can send that to her or she'll email you and then you can ask them and see and you can take charge of that. And that's something that we don't necessarily have to be there. Do you

57
00:20:57.679 --> 00:21:13.679
want to be there with a few students? You can do that to those to those um if we can't make it. Okay. So, anything else that you want to update us on? No, I just want to say that like I've had like the best year working with you guys and like I know at the start I was like kind of unsure but like just every

58
00:21:13.679 --> 00:21:30.960
meeting every event I've been with you guys have been really like just love EA more and I'm so grateful that you guys gave me >> and now you're familiar with a lot of our events. >> All right, so I'm going to move on now to old business. Um so end of the year book inventory and collection we did

59
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:47.200
that um at the end of the year in May, right? right in the front of summer or you >> was the day of the mother's >> the day of the mother's event. Um and it was interesting. Anybody you want to recap, Jackie, kind of what we did and you >> um [laughter] so we went through the

60
00:21:47.200 --> 00:22:03.840
majority of the boxes. We tried to separate, you know, the newer books versus the books that were used. Some of the books that were damaged were discarded. Um, we divided them by, you know, use pretty much like the ones that

61
00:22:03.840 --> 00:22:20.799
are newer. Um, we also separated some and we filled the neighborhood libraries, which was nice. >> The little the little libraries. And now, >> um, I think we're ready for the year. I don't think we need to purchase any books. >> So, as we give away the different books, I think we need to make sure that we

62
00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:37.919
hold on to the new books for us to give. Um, but there's plenty of books. >> Let me figure out the when I went look I saw again those huge boxes of like that one copy of that book. It's like Neptune something something

63
00:22:37.919 --> 00:22:52.320
where you can >> I think that was donated by a school >> that was donated to me education. But we're allowed to like give that >> because I feel like I don't if like we use that for an event, I don't want to just give

64
00:22:52.320 --> 00:23:08.720
>> a couple ship it out. Yeah, >> I agree. >> I I was going to ask you because you put the Dollywood Foundation in is this an invoice >> or um they invoice us every month. You prepay that. Like they do send us an invoice every month. So you know what? Like how many books are being sent out?

65
00:23:08.720 --> 00:23:24.400
That changes monthly obviously because we have people coming in and we have kids that need >> but we don't pay for this anymore in our account right because >> it's tied to you guys but you guys it's actually coming out of the scholarship which that scholarship was for how long 15 years or something or 10 years. No, they give us an amount. It's rather when the amount

66
00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:40.240
>> Oh, when the amount expires with that 15,000,000, >> but they've checked in with us and they want to continue. Just want to see the numbers. >> Okay. Okay. Okay. So, that's fine. That's the only reason you put it there. >> How much it's going. >> You see if this one says 304 books are mailed out.

67
00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:56.400
>> Okay. >> Or will be mailed out now the first. >> So, I think we're good. Like I said, Jackie said we're good on our end for now. how it opens. >> And I just wanted to add that the uh Mother's Day event, the painting, the face painting with the kids and that that was a total positive. It was excellent >> while you guys were the kids were so

68
00:23:56.400 --> 00:24:11.919
happy. The parents were happy. >> The park there was perfect. The shade was perfect. I mean, it went very smoothly. >> Awesome. Thank you. >> I enjoyed it. I know what committee runs that one >> affairs. But that was really >> I think a lot of their events, the cultural affairs would probably ones

69
00:24:11.919 --> 00:24:27.200
that would lend them the best to have read the books there. Yeah, they do a lot of familyfriendly event. I look for events that are familyfriendly. >> Exactly. >> Um, now an update from Haley because she went to the town committee budget meeting on June 4th. I wasn't able to make it and they talked a lot about

70
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:42.159
events. Remember that was one where they mentioned the events that we would well go ahead and talk about events. >> Okay. So, all right. >> Okay. Okay, it's coming back to them. >> I have a register.

71
00:24:42.159 --> 00:24:57.840
>> Yeah. So, it went up. It was the budget budget got um they took out the 15,000 form I imaginary library because we already have the donation. So, that was an error on our part. They was one council member

72
00:24:57.840 --> 00:25:14.480
who said they wish that we would have attempted to put back the the programs for >> Hersburg, right? >> Yes. >> Yeah. um for >> the money that we were giving >> the money that we were giving the elementary schools like for AP >> we took

73
00:25:14.480 --> 00:25:30.080
cut it the town council cut that budget >> saying that like he would have voted yes for that but that was just him saying don't know the opinions of the other council >> um and then also I >> youard

74
00:25:30.080 --> 00:25:45.919
that they're looking into our mission statement to see if events are really a part of our um mission statement. Even if it's not, they're going to start putting down events. Um I also brought up um the what's it called? >> The Greek style game.

75
00:25:45.919 --> 00:26:01.440
>> I have I asked permission to use the Laza Community Center. Um and that got approved and that was pretty much it. >> So they did say we could do the Greek soccer games. >> We got approved to use >> Oh, to use the center, but not for the Greek style games. >> Yeah. No, for the Greek style games. Oh,

76
00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:17.679
I thought that that Okay. No, I thought that they weren't they wanting to limit events? >> Well, yes. I So, how does that make sense? >> Cuz I I mean, I could be wrong. I'm just jumping in here, but are they seeing it as a it's an outside entity that's going to be hosting this and we're just lending them our space? No.

77
00:26:17.679 --> 00:26:32.480
>> Or are they seeing it as an >> I was clear that it was like we're bringing you guys the event >> and Yes. >> Okay. >> And that we would it was permission for the EAB to use the Roberto Lonzo Community Center for our new event that would we are still working on. My title

78
00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:47.760
was I didn't wasn't here for the last meeting so I was like didn't know exactly what it was >> but I explained it was going to be like you know there's have different components of competitions like chess and different aspects that we're still talking about um >> or promoting the schools right to get

some sort of educational so that they understand that it's >> Yeah, >> we we did say Greek style games, but we can change. >> But it's just like describing it. I mean, when you give it a title. >> Yeah, let's give it a title. I need I need that from you today cuz I have to submit this Greek style. I mean, I

00:29:43.919 --> 00:29:58.960
wasn't here for that meeting for this these style games. Are we talking like physical >> are we talking? >> I said go date. There we go. That's what I >> in the minutes it doesn't say. field day. It >> says field day in the minute. That's

91
00:29:58.960 --> 00:30:14.799
what we discussed. We said field day. >> Um but I I know the whole point was to promote people learning about the parents coming and families coming and learning about the schools. We were going to have the schools have like a little table >> um at these events so that they could get information about the schools.

92
00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:30.240
Yeah. But they would be like going to have a team. >> Exactly. Field days. Yeah. So something like that. >> Field idea for like calls. I'm ask Michelle ask >> while she's doing that. Hey, so that's that's something we can add there and we

93
00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:46.240
want to do that and then if we want to do this fall festival which we're going to vote on um I haven't first not I have to talk to you about right now festivals the >> the uh this well the >> book fair

94

>> the book fair the regular book fair do I add that then well if we vote on it I'll add it to the events yeah if we if we decide to present it to the book fair okay so those are two things I would event. Um, and then for future projects and then we obviously we have the spelling B and we have the AV award. We

95
00:31:02.799 --> 00:31:19.039
only have two events. We don't have that many events. >> I just pulled up the minutes. >> Okay. Go ahead. >> It was Yeah, it passed. >> It passed for the for the Grease games and >> they called it field day. New line item field day. >> So, let's just call it field day. >> Field day.

really hot. >> I think you guys said October. No, >> tell me a month and >> we do January, February. >> January. I think we said January. >> We said October, December. Other than that it's like between holidays and everything. >> We said uh January Christmas. We said

98
00:31:52.000 --> 00:32:07.840
late January, early February, >> but late January is a spelling. But last month, so early February. >> I'm like almost positive that we said like right either right before the selling, but we said that I think better after spelling B because then we have the gap between the awards of April 29th

99
00:32:07.840 --> 00:32:24.720
and then selling B January 22nd. >> So yeah, because we do spelling B and in late May we do >> early May. Early May, late April we do the EV award. February. Yeah, February. So would we want to do early or midFebruary to give us a couple of weeks

100
00:32:24.720 --> 00:32:41.039
because they should be open to it because if it's going to be I'm going to assume you guys need to sit this as well or no. >> Yeah, it's a field day. >> So we have to coordinate with them to see what was so

101
00:32:41.039 --> 00:32:56.159
>> exactly. So >> in February what does it look like for that? >> I I don't Okay. So check check with us for February March. to see what you think. >> Who of you guys is going to be like a chair put this so that I can follow this? >> You? >> You me? Yeah. >> No. No. I don't know.

>> It would have to be next Monday. >> Yeah. Because it can't be during the school day. It can be during >> Okay. It's crazy. It has to be a Saturday. >> Yeah. >> So, in February or March, we'll take either date, whatever dates available. Now, remember March, uh we have spring break, so it can't it has to be before

104
00:33:29.600 --> 00:33:43.919
spring break. >> It's going to have to be in February sometime. >> So, either February or or or like early March could also work as well. It just can't be like >> it can't be spring break is March 22nd, right? The school calendar. >> I know. We never decode. It's always the

105
00:33:43.919 --> 00:34:00.399
last, you know, so before it can be, you know, the first or second week of of March. >> It's our birthday, >> the first second Saturday of March or any other month of February. >> February is perfect. >> February is February. Okay. Then let us

So let us know what Saturday would be better. >> Okay. The 13th we cannot do because that's President's weekend and people will be here. >> Well, she's going to Miami Lake Olymp.

No, school. >> School olympiad. School olympiad. >> Miami date. school Olympia Olympia. Very nice. >> I like that. Miami date. >> One school. I'm sorry. One town, six schools, one community.

109
00:34:49.440 --> 00:35:07.119
>> There you go. >> Great, man. I'm telling you. >> And you know, I actually like it. Well, for me, it's a man. For my daughter, she says hers. I don't know why, but anyways, I like it better than Gemini. My husband uses the Gemini. I don't like it. It seems very professional. Nothing

110
00:35:07.119 --> 00:35:25.359
sounds like yes chat sounds more like given away I don't like Gemini >> now we have to give them an estimated cost for this event what would be the estimated cost >> okay so Haley just mentioned six schools but based on the public comments and the minutes from last time again I wasn't

111
00:35:25.359 --> 00:35:41.680
here it seems like only the high schools are listed here >> oh >> so it says Bob Graham educ >> HML Miami said they only listed three education center HML L and Miami Lakes. >> It's a K through eight, but then HML and

112
00:35:41.680 --> 00:35:57.040
Miami Lakes. >> No, I think we're going to include middle. >> It has to It has to um spotlight all the schools. So, we have to use their middle. >> So, we do middle and high school. That's a question. They want >> We just don't put the high school kids against middle school like middle

113
00:35:57.040 --> 00:36:12.720
school. >> Going to be those are the schools that Mario listed, but we've been >> they want because there's there are elementary schools. There's middle and there's high. But I want to focus this on middle and high and not elementary at all. >> What if we just do middle? Then the high school can volunteer.

114
00:36:12.720 --> 00:36:28.160
>> The high schools can the high school >> only have it kind of be like a >> but the high schools can have their tables there. >> Yeah. >> To advertise, but the middle school kids would be the one. So be it kind of becomes like a But then we only have >> we only have three

115
00:36:28.160 --> 00:36:42.079
>> schools. They're middle schools. >> And we said we were starting small. Whatever we were going to do. Well, I don't know if we put middle schools. I like the idea that high school kids can volunteer and high school. What are the official count of laminates high school? >> There's [clears throat] three high

116
00:36:42.079 --> 00:37:00.240
schools. Well, we have two in the town that are not >> and three. So, it would only be six schools. That would be And then the three middles would go against each other on the field. Remember, we said we're going to use the roads park. So, you have the

117
00:37:00.240 --> 00:37:16.720
field is big enough. So we'd have the three I guess >> middle school >> middle school's here. The high school's against each other. >> So >> and then we could have two trophies for each of them or medals or whatever. >> So middle and high school. >> I think we do both. >> It's six. >> Okay. So So then to do that total of six

118
00:37:16.720 --> 00:37:32.960
schools, right? Six schools. >> Yes. Total school. >> So now all we have to get them would be the medals. >> How many kids would that look like? Like how many kids were each school? >> It depends how many >> they're going to have to grade at the school. It depends on how many actual like events you're going to do like

119
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:47.760
>> the three-legged race or whatever because I'm not athletic. So, >> we have to take a lot of planning. >> I mean, just put me I'm just trying to figure out a leg. We We're going to be providing medals and of course those are not too expensive. I don't think >> the medals are cheap.

120
00:37:47.760 --> 00:38:05.359
>> The medals are cheap. Um uh and then the food we can probably get maybe donated like some snacks. >> No, we said we were going to do um sales and the concession. Oh yeah. So the schools could sell their own food and make money. Oh no, we're going to sell. >> No, we were going to sell in their concession a little area. We were going

121
00:38:05.359 --> 00:38:22.720
to sell chips, sodas, water, stuff like that. But we can actually make money for us. >> Yeah, that's not a cost for us. >> So, and the venue was we we don't pay for that venue >> for the park. >> Yeah. No, >> no. No. >> Well, then I don't think >> you have to pay um do littering,

122
00:38:22.720 --> 00:38:37.520
>> right? Like pay for custodians and stuff. >> Oh, how much would that cost? The question I have to put the event is and how many people >> it probably going to be I would say like I mean I don't I'm thinking off top of my head now 9 to 12 like something like 3 or 4 hours it would be like an event like that I don't know

123
00:38:37.520 --> 00:38:56.640
>> it shouldn't be much like maybe like pick up >> no cuz it's not done total >> is there 20 something I think >> no they're a little more $200 >> no I don't think so we get them for the

124
00:38:56.640 --> 00:39:12.880
my grocery store. Um, Haley, do you know how much they charge us? >> But remember, we're under contract. I don't know what it is. I have to check. >> I think it's 33 >> dollars an hour. >> Yeah. >> So, let's I Let's say $40 an hour. And each hours request packet.

125
00:39:12.880 --> 00:39:27.440
>> I can ball 200. >> Hold on. I can tell you. I just I just did it for one of the events. >> Secret wife. I'm just saying no more than 160 for that. And then let's say we let's say 200 200 for metal. So

126
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:43.520
>> and we got to buy food chips chips or whatever sell. >> Yeah. >> That comes out of our account. No, that comes out of >> I was thinking more like 500. >> So you know like in total I was thinking like 5006 I think. Yeah. >> I don't think we're going to go over five or 600, right? Or 600.

127
00:39:43.520 --> 00:39:58.880
>> No, I mean they only went to buy $400. But what about then the schools have to bring their own like we're gonna have to borrow from the schools their equipment their P equipment to do the actual >> I was say like >> yeah event >> we're not buying >> I said

128
00:39:58.880 --> 00:40:14.880
>> and maybe so what do you think like maybe 500 600 >> yeah that should be more than >> that should be more >> better to put more >> I'm not and it's an estimated >> exactly >> does that does that existing bud is that is this within an existing committee

129
00:40:14.880 --> 00:40:30.400
budget line item. No, because it's a menu. >> You guys have an online? >> Yeah, but it's only $1,000 and that and that that covers asking for additional funds or plan to use it from that one.

130
00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:47.520
>> Do we want to do like a trophy like the best >> but Mario said that they that he would get us uh sponsors? He said that he would get us sponsors, >> right? That would be like one for the middle and one for the high. >> Yeah. So, I think we we would do a race. Obviously, you have to secure the sponsor. So, it wouldn't come from our

131
00:40:47.520 --> 00:41:04.160
We wouldn't be spending. >> Well, I guess that's what you guys need to tell them. Like, do are you guys asking for additional funds? >> No, I don't think we need to. >> He said he would structure. >> Yeah. I don't think we need >> That's what you need to tell them. >> I just put here for our existing line existing line items for events. I

132
00:41:04.160 --> 00:41:21.440

137
00:42:33.520 --> 00:42:49.440
them. If we ask them to intergovernmental, we're gonna have to wait like two months to get an answer. >> I don't know. >> I because we could always vote for it and then if they tell us they don't want us to do it, we cancel it. I mean, >> I don't know. >> What do you What do you think? I don't

fair um for us for me to present it to the board to see if they'll give us permission to allow them to come >> and for us to uh to have the book fair. Um >> I was looking at the roster and there's some religious books. I don't think we should have it there like when we do the

172
00:53:01.599 --> 00:53:17.520
book fair. >> What do you guys think? >> Could the town >> Yeah. >> But it's not really in a public school. Does the town have something against >> I think at least sponsorships. >> Well, with sponsorships right now, we you know that was changed. So that way

173
00:53:17.520 --> 00:53:33.359
>> what is the policy regarding that? >> Just how about you bring it up to council whether you decide to do religious or not >> bring that not a public school. We're not doing this in the actual schools. >> We're doing this in the town. >> I think our whole thing is to be inclusive. So you're just not as long as you're not singing out one specific

174
00:53:33.359 --> 00:53:50.720
religion then I think it's fine. >> Okay. >> Those concerns. So I would but whatever you guys said for or not for religious like just make sure to I would bring I think it's an important point to bring up and have them vote on it. So like that it's you know they're ultimately the ones doing the yes. >> I don't think towns have you know policy

175
00:53:50.720 --> 00:54:08.000
on not selling because they do every single type of religiousity. >> They do the monora do >> it's moreive rather than singling one out. >> They do everything. >> But whatever you guys say I love them. >> I mean I look through some of the books. Some of them are definitely Christian

176
00:54:08.000 --> 00:54:24.400
>> ideology, but there's also a lot of like just like basic books for kids. >> So I mean they can be there and the parents can decide what they want to purchase. So the authors that all Christian authors so I think that's authors that they're talking they have visit the schools like when they do the

177
00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:41.440
>> the book fairs and like the private stuff I think they have those specific featured like highlighted on the website >> because that's their the demographics there. >> Okay. So what would you like to do? We want to vote to bring in the book

178
00:54:41.440 --> 00:54:58.240
>> number is 20%. >> For an initiative to decide what that initiative is that we want to use it for. We can decide that later. Right now we want to vote there. But >> I would say to whatever was taken away from us was what the

179
00:54:58.240 --> 00:55:13.599
>> No, but we're not asking for much. We're not asking for any money. >> No, you're saying initiative. No, the 20% profit that we get would have to be for us >> for us for one of our new initiatives, right? Like like even like say for example the money we're going to use for the Olympics. >> Okay.

180
00:55:13.599 --> 00:55:29.280
>> They could give us the money. >> That's the concern of the money. The question is do you ladies want me to present this to the board for them to vote on? >> Well, at least I >> Yeah, we need a motion. >> Make a motion. I make a motion to have the >> good news

181
00:55:29.280 --> 00:55:45.119
>> good good news book fair >> present it to >> present it to our council >> for approval >> for approval. We still have >> to look it over and make sure >> and Jessica send us the presentation

183
00:56:01.119 --> 00:56:15.680
I'm done. >> I would suggest you guys discuss it just a little bit more because they may ask questions and you want to be >> money. I don't know the books, stuff like that. >> Well, there it's there they're there is specifically a nonprofit promoting Christian books. That's you can't get

184
00:56:15.680 --> 00:56:32.079
around that. Christian is um family value, >> virtuous, virtue, and all that, but it's specifically Christian books. So if they have an issue with that then then it's a no. It's that for them to decide. I'm not deciding. >> No, I'm just making >> I know there separation of church and state. I don't know how that goes in the

185
00:56:32.079 --> 00:56:49.280
town. I don't know how that works. So >> but values focused choices. I don't cuz they don't have books. >> Go vote already. >> No. No. Well, no. They voted to to the motion to tootion motion. Now we'd have to vote on the motion. But you just saw

186
00:56:49.280 --> 00:57:04.160
up before we voted to make sure we discuss >> if there's money like if you guys need to put up any money. >> No, we don't have to put up any money. She told us that when they do it >> specifically are >> we have to decide from them is or I think we should decide that now we have Let me see. I'm not ready.

187
00:57:04.160 --> 00:57:21.359
It's fine. Do you ladies when would you want to have the book fair? Would it be something independent of any other events or would they be attaching it to one of our events? >> Yeah, do it on its own on a Saturday or something. mean the holiday time when people are like wanting to buy stuff.

188
00:57:21.359 --> 00:57:37.680
>> Yeah. She specifically said they don't want to do it on a holiday or not a particular festival because then people don't come. So it has to be a time of the year where people >> No, but like during the holiday season like buy >> like maybe November or something >> because when they did it in Southwest Ranches the theme they like to do

189
00:57:37.680 --> 00:57:53.040
themes. It was summer reading in the ranches. They just had it now in the summer. Summer reading in the ranches. So, we could do it as a summer reading thing here next summer or we could have it in the winter season. >> Yeah, we could do like a fall >> winter reading lake

190
00:57:53.040 --> 00:58:08.400
fall reading for November. >> October, yeah, because we have something we we have this Olympia in January. We're going to do this Olympiad and then we have the So, yeah, the fall we have. >> We don't really have to do much >> do anything. No, they do everything. They set it up. They do. We're just collecting the profits, 20% of the

191
00:58:08.400 --> 00:58:24.559
profits to go for an initiative that we have, but we do have to decide what that initiative. >> I think we do something in October to come. >> Um, so maybe fall reading in the lakes. We call it fall reading in the lakes or something like fall reading. You want to call it that? >> Yeah, call it that. Falling in the lakes. >> Let's just piggy back on the

192
00:58:24.559 --> 00:58:41.200
>> let's just pillage them out. Fall reading in the >> I'll call it that and then they can vote for that. They approve it. That's something. >> Well, reading in the lake sounds really cute. >> Okay, so that's that's that's that. Um, there anything else for that we have to

193
00:58:41.200 --> 00:58:55.760
>> No. >> No. And so I'll add it because there's no budget for them to approve. >> They're going to ask what resources you guys are asking for if any. >> None, right? >> Well, they need a space if it will either be held at the town hall or one of the >> one of the town centers

194
00:58:55.760 --> 00:59:18.000
>> centers. Town hall or town center. Yeah. One maybe. >> So, so for that that's always you said you said how much an hour? >> No, that's that's a lot less than 33. >> Oh, okay. >> The other ones because it's outside. >> So, I just put janitorial, but I don't put the amount like whatever the

195
00:59:18.000 --> 00:59:33.440
janitorial expenses. >> Yeah, cuz it also depends on the day and time location may already be done. >> It's going to be obviously like on a weekend. It's not going to be on a weekday. They're not going to have during weekday. So, it probably be like a Saturday morning. So, it's >> if it's here, you're definitely going to have to pay for it. If it's in one of the community centers, >> you don't have to pay for it.

196
00:59:33.440 --> 00:59:48.240
>> If it's within the hours where we have to tour, you don't have >> Oh, then you have to pay for it. So, they're probably going to do it in one of the centers would make more sense, right? I don't know. Whatever. >> Depends. I don't know. Availability. >> So, availability and then and with the with the council members this could have it here or or

197
00:59:48.240 --> 01:00:04.079
>> well, what are you proposing? >> I would love to see what their setup was. Like, I can't wait to see her email. >> I'll send it to you as soon as she sends it to me >> because I think that will help us. Do you have like available dates that I could also go back to her and tell her, "Oh, this is what we have in November." So, if you can give me some dates in

198
01:00:04.079 --> 01:00:19.680
October >> from here, I can tell you >> if it's the community center, I have to check what parts. >> So, yeah, check all of those and give me all the dates and I'll tell her, "Look, if you do it here in the town, it's more >> October, November, right? Those are the October, November. >> I think one of the is better than like the town.

>> That way, they don't have to have they don't have to pay for No, they don't have to pay for and there's Yeah. Yeah. Cuz here in the town, >> you pay like they usually have those bookshelves that closed. They're like suitcases and open like that >> could be a center. >> I think it should be a center. >> The centers. >> Yeah. Ladies want it to be in one of the

200
01:00:35.839 --> 01:00:51.520

How many centers do we >> Well, I was thinking or >> and the youth center. Yeah. So, there's three. There's three of them. >> You guys don't care.

>> just a small update on that. Um I know that we've had I mean I don't know if you guys know but internally staff we've had issues with the banners because the veterans keeps growing and growing and growing and then they kind of like run out of space and then we put the kids in like you know >> they get stuff all the way back

226
01:07:49.760 --> 01:08:06.319
