Time for the dance is set for 7:00 P.M. to 11:00 P.M. Darlene will contact Nadine
Ardvig about getting the reserves to help out during the dance. We need to figure out
a way to secure the area for the dance. We're thinking of stamping the hand of
people that have paid, to ensure re-entry should some need to leave and want to conte
back Snow fence would make a good barrier and could be used for other things as
well. On the Flyer we need to tell people to bring lawn chairs or blankets. We can
also use picnic tables from the park. Tom Constant and Jeff Bartheld have also
offered to bring tables from home. The flyers also need to state the dance will be
held rain or shine.

Jeff Bartheld suggested we involve the Lions to help with other food stands, such as
watermelon or rootbeer floats. Popcorn is another idea. Suzanne Ackerman has a

Mark Berning gave Jeff Bartheld a letter from the Pork Producers in conjunction with
Radio Station KRWC. They will come to an event and play music and games and

one side would cost $120.00 and that a plastic sign, the same would be $88,00.
