Discussion:
Celebration Iowa Issues
A discussion of the donation of concession money from It Runs in the
Family to Vinton’s Celebration Iowa participants (Matt Ternus, and
ACT I members Aaron Murphy and Beckie Stravers) was discussed.
Previously, by an e-mail vote, it had been approved to donate all the
concession money to them (minus expenses.)
The appropriateness of this was discussed, as well as suggesting that in
broader terms concession money might be made available to others on an
application basis.
Motion:
(Marcy / Kari) To pay
$50 each (for a total of $150) to Aaron Murphy, Beckie Stravers and Matt Ternus
for their participation in Celebration Iowa, from the concession money from
“It Runs in the Family.” Motion
carried.
Joan then appointed a committee to explore
the possibility of setting up grant funding for arts related activites using
concession money. She indicated her
intention to appoint Ron Baldwin, Kari Douma, Marcy Horst, and Mary Horst.
Discussion:
Palace Staff Palace
Manager Lu Karr and staff member Kevin Bookmeier, both ACT I members, discussed
a variety of concerns. Lu offered
the assistance of the Palace in areas of publicity and suggested that each
director be given a packet of information regarding the use of the Palace as
well as a time line for giving the Palace information which would facilitate
Palace assistance with publicity. She
had many excellent suggestions of ways the Palace staff could help ACT I in this
area.
Issues such as seating late comers and
unruly children were also discussed.
Kevin and Lu also discussed personnel
concerns regarding It Runs in the Family.
Joan was called away and Vice President
Marcy chaired the remainder of the meeting. Kari also needed to leave
early.

It was decided that the meeting be held on Saturday, June 15 at noon at
the Pizza Ranch.

The Meeting was adjourned at 10:30 PM.
