We have decided to meet twice a month up to the Reunion

Entertainment
Nancy presented two prices for DJ’s

James Jandreau (498-4277) will be $100 per hour and require a $50 deposit. They have two other guys able to do the work (Craig Jackson and JR Belanger, but Nancy can get James. They require a contract; top of the line system; Bose dock; will play music we submit; 8 different light shows, strobe lights, wireless mikes.

Dave and Sue Ouellette will be $500 as a 5 hr block of time and then $100 each hour after that. (So as with the other DJ $100 per hour) They require a $100 deposit and a signed contract. They have new equipment; light show; will play our music; wireless mikes.

A few other people were going to look into other DJ’s and get prices for the next meeting. (I believe the other DJ’s to look into were Jimmy Steve and Trent Burday) There will be a vote at the next meeting because both DJ’s have penciled in the date of July 11th.

Mailings/Booklets/Postcards

Grady Brown has offered to get the booklet printed and bound for us. We need to send him an electronic version and he will offer us styles to pick from. Thanks Grady!

The mailing list should be finalized by the next meeting. From there we need to create the labels and get the postcards out.

Jill presented a few post cards for the committee to review and the committee voted on one. Lots of questions and prices were discussed on the final product. Jill and Nancy will be brainstorming to present prices and a final sample for approval.

Photographer: Someone needs to get prices for a photographer that has a wide angle lens.

Fundraisers (so far)
CD’s of the slide show
The booklet
Raffle or a silent auction?
T-Shirts
Any other suggestions…

Tentative list of inserts to go in the main mailer

What is being offered, where and how much

RSVP asking for funds.

Asking for top twenty favorite songs and with bands if possible, this is the only way we will get to hear the specific songs we want, not just the band. Listen to country rock stations; you’ll get lots of ideas from there.

25 Random things about you
Nancy did bring the material from our last reunion. It was fun to go thru and gave us ideas for banners to put up in town. Kevin will work on this.

Does anyone remember the big mural that was put up at our Prom? We all signed it and it was at our 10th year reunion as well. It will be up at this reunion for everyone to sign on our 30th.

Next meeting will be on 4/16/2009 at 6:30pm at Northeastland.
