Old Business

Rodeo
Thank you to our volunteers! The Abilene Cowboy Church came and helped. Terry Greer made a motion to contribute $100 to the Abilene Cowboy Church. Brenda Lagasse seconded and the motion passed. We are still waiting to collect money from the concession stand. Next year there needs to be more than beer available at the north concession stand.

Arena
Jason Wheeler looked at the lights and it will take a lot of work. We will look at upgrading the lights and get quotes for the work.

EKHA
The show goers really appreciated having the concession stand.
