3. Review Financial Results – WVST bank account has a balance of $5000.00. Sponsorships from Pro Kids are included here.
4. Review outstanding bills and adjusted fees for swimmers – This will be looked at closer later in the week as some monies have yet to be collected from the AYR front desk.
5. Update on High School Regionals – Preparations for this meet are going smoothly. A timer course was held at the AYR center on Sunday November 8th in order to provide more timers for this meet. More timers are still needed so Peter will be sending an email to other locations requesting help to fill timer positions for the November 28th meet.
6. Coaching update from Eileen – It was suggested that WVST try to offer some basic training courses (Community Level Coaching, Clerk of Course) at the AYR Center in hopes of getting some more volunteers(parents) to help with practices.
7. Gift Cards to Dianne – Dianne Foreman led the timer training course on November 8. It was decided that WVST would present her with a $25 gift card to thank her.
8. Christmas Party – The WVST Christmas party will be held at the bowling alley on December 14. It will include bowling for 1 hour followed by a potluck at the bowling alley.
9. Other topics – The purchase of backstroke flags was discussed. The new flags will represent current “gold” sponsor members. Additional flags will be able to be purchased for $20.00 per flag. The flags will be good advertisement for sponsors. Also, ideas for practices and/or camps for WVST over Christmas break were discussed.
