veterans, 50% discount for nice Columbus and those on the retreat. >> How's ticket sales? you know, slow slow, but it's it was the holidays and I'm hoping that with the pick up of
the holidays, you know, holidays over, we start moving the sales faster. So, that's what I'm looking at, you know, because we have 300 tickets to sale for the event. >> If you need it, we we can talk to
Kasabana, we can talk to Sergio, and they can sell tickets with you. >> Yeah, we'll ask. I know Kasabana is donating the meals. 50 meals. I need to go with you. I need to go with you to find us >> to see, you know, what they're going to give us. We can we can determine what to make.
>> He gave us, you know, he gave us the first time. He gave us 2,500 meals. >> Yeah. Well, we only need 300. He already said 350. I just want I just want to He already said he already said he'll do it, but I want [clears throat] to get the menu down and figure out how we're going to do the delivery and everything.

the same way. >> Gary, I'm gonna talk to Gary Gary. I'll talk to Gary. But let me get going with this thing. We added another item which is 9B. Can you go through Hey
Good lad. >> Down there. Yeah. >> All right. So, we're at the last item. So, perfect time. >> Nice. >> So, we're going over the report to council. Awesome. Okay. So, let's see. Budget and
activity. That's all we know. We need Secretary J. lectures already happened. >> It was kind of funny. Okay, so anyhow, um let's see anything unusual on our budget. This is the money we raised.
$62,600 so far. >> You're Yes, that's what's saying contributions and donations. >> All right, but we haven't taken out expenses yet, right? Will the expenses 34,496 or >> so far? I would have to check with finance if everything has been reported
already, but um eventually that money will be moved into the 5K. >> So I I think we were still pending things like uh the sheriff's department, the officers that were there. There was some pending things. So I'll follow up to see where we're at with those
>> um those expenses. like 50% of the more than 50%. >> Wow. >> Figure out what's mean because we're getting in more money but they're taking out more money. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah. That's hamster wheel there. Think of >> this is so you know what I'm thinking in my head. I mean, I think a golf tournament would be a good replacement for this thing because this thing is the
costs are so high. It's 20,000. We can pay for the golf clubs 15 grand. He'll probably give it to us for the whole day. What do you think, Larry? >> I think it's worth working with. >> Yeah. And maybe cheaper overall. So, we'll take a look at that and see if we can get Judy to shift fires and do it
that way. And I think we'll get more big sponsors, too. I know these bigger teams and stuff. All right. So, okay. So, that's the budget. Um, activity. Um, well, we got a bunch of activity.
Any initiatives, any events for still doing the, uh, veteran, the honorable law, any future projects, considerations? I don't think nothing, you know, future. Um, except I'll probably articulate to
them only if I get to talk. I'll talk to Judy and see where your thoughts are. >> She should be here next parade. >> In the parade. Yeah. >> Be here on Monday. >> Yeah. I'll talk to Judy. I got her number, but I'll give her a call and ask her because look at this 35 $35,000
cost, you know. And I'm like, what are we doing? >> Maybe, you know, see if we can knock it down some more money. It's not how much you make, it's how much keep, you know. >> Yeah. Right. So, let's see. All right. Um,
that was the last item. Any other issues, concerns? >> I'll just need to report by February 3rd. Same with um this attendance log, Ed, when you >> Yeah. Yeah. >> So, all that by February 3rd. And then just other things that you want to keep
going are like mention the scholarships, the banner, all your existing, you know, projects you want to report. Memorial Day. Um, I already mentioned the parade. >> I wanted to mention something on Memorial Day. It might be a fundraiser.
>> We've discussed it. We've never really executed a plan on it, but Memorial Day traditionally across the nation. Poppies have been represented Memorial Day. And local vendors, you know, gas stations, convenience stores, whatever, have sold
poppies. they can sold their mind to or set up so they could be done with a barcode their home or whatever and uh you know those poppy sales bring a lot of money in to a lot of organizations around country BFW etc. And I think maybe it's something we could we might want to look into for Memorial Day as an
additional fundraiser. >> Yeah, that's a good idea. I mean, the thing is we need people to do it, right? And you can start doing it even for the whole month of May, you know, that doesn't have to be just for Memorial Day. And I see it done that way. Um, but you got to have we got to get basically
the American Legion veterans, you know, to go and be out there and sell copies. You know, >> we know I mean I love the American Legion guys, but you know, basically most of the guys, you know, they're older guys. They really don't. >> No, no, I hear you. But who who's going
to do it? I mean, it's going to be me. >> What about the bicycle or the >> I would absolutely volunteer for And I think and I think basically if we organize we'll probably get volunteers from maybe even Barber Golden whatever to go out and help you know solicit the uh the local businesses to promote the
sale of poppies and we could do the like you said the entire month and day. Let me add poppy sales in there in there and uh the restaurant will help and >> who wants to head up that way.
Thank you, Larry. Um, >> so basically, let's get the Goldman once you get the Goldman into it. >> Yeah, they will, you know, they will sell it. You know, it's a dollar each. They'll sell it really quick. We can raise quite a bit of money. That's a great idea. It's a great idea.
>> So, yeah, I think next meeting just have you have the contracts for the folks >> and figure out and what we can do is maybe we can use American Legion funds to buy the poppies. And then our next meeting, American
Ninja. So find out how much sufficient already has those for those. >> We last time we bought them. We I bought them. I got them on the Amazon. >> They came with kids and all the same thing, but they're more sophisticated now with the way they collected. >> Cool. That'll be perfect. Great idea.
>> All right. Anything else? >> All right. >> So, we're good with the the the report. >> Yeah. I think uh I got to make sure I uh >> No, I'll type it up. I'll type it up. I got it. And then I'll have the additional stuff provided to her because
u I guess I meet February 4th. >> Uh the actual council meeting is the 17th. >> 17th. >> Yes. The 17th at 6:30, which is a Tuesday. So the report is due on the 3.
>> All right. Um motion to adjurnn. >> Seconds. >> All those in favor. >> All right. Thank you very much, gentlemen. Appreciate it. Happy New Year. >> You broke the record. We have the times kickoff. No.
