Book and toy swap: Will take place in Hall International cafeteria, 1601 Aldrich AV N 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., April 15. Everyone is encouraged to bring toys and children’s and parenting books they no longer need. All items will sell for $.25 each. Drop donations at Hall any time before the sale begins.
TO DO in prep for sale:

Billi will create table signs (infant, ages 1, 2, 3. 4 and 5 yr) and posters for the building and halls—directions to the cafeteria).

Set up will begin at 1:00, with volunteers Manu, Laura, Billi, Sharon and Aqueelah.

Annette will arrange for the playroom to be open and supervised.

Aqueelah will bring coin and small dollar change for the sale.

Laura, Sharon and Billi will try to stay through clean-up, depending on stamina of their kids. Billi will take items that did not sell to Salvation Army or other organization.

Plant Sale: The due date for all order forms is Friday, April 8.
TO DO in prep for sale:

Annette will photocopy the order forms and give them to Sophie on April 8.

Sophie and Celine will work together to finalize the order with Wagners, and create spreadsheet of orders.

We will need volunteers for May 5 distribution, 2:30 to 6:30, in two time slots. There will be a class at that time, but we will try to fit children of volunteers into the class if possible.

Momcation: Date is set at Friday, May 13. Aqueelah has already given the credit card info to reserve the rooms.
TO DO in prep for Momcation:
Decisions are to be made about scholarships (Annette??) based on the $500 set aside for the event, and the $70 balance from the Disco Ball.
Celine is preparing a flyer.

Website: the blog is no longer working. Options were discussed, and decision was made for Aqueelah to give Ariah Fine authorization to renew the blog with enomcentral.com for $35. In January Aqueelah will authorize Ariah to set up the blog for a $10 fee that he can get on his site which is what we used last time.

Thank you cards and credit cards for Disco Ball light and music providers: Aqueelah has these ready to send and just has to get to the post office to send them.

Meeting adjourned at 5:30 p.m.
