Scholarship
David advised that he had received the Annual Scholarship Agreement fully signed by Auburn. He had left a message with April Mullins as to the status of the Endowment Agreement.
It was agreed that we will charge $18.00 for the T-shirt. Donna will order 144 shirts. Jerry felt we will make a second order because the first will sell quickly. It appeared that the officers might purchase twenty or thirty of the shirts.
David was to determine how we could raise dues to contribute to the scholarship. He couldn’t remember exact verbiage of the By-Laws and will verify the process. He generally felt that the By-laws are mute as to how to specifically raise dues.

David to follow up with Auburn on signed Endowment Agreement.
Donna to order T-shirts
David to review By-Laws as to the process to raise dues.

Jerry will check with Taco Mac to confirm September 29, for the Florida game and October 20, for the LSU game for the GWPs.
Golf Tournament
There was a general discussion concerning Brett Johnson’s interest in assisting with the tournament, and a possible tournament date in October. It was felt we needed a date so that applications for the tournament are available at the annual meeting.
Greater Involvement
It was discussed that we need a table at the meeting for people to sign up to get involved. There is a consensus among everyone present that we had done this previously, but we never followed up with the list of people.
