Kelty asked if the PCC would be prepared to fund a new die-cut machine for the staff, at a cost of approximately $1500. It was decided that we would wait until June to decide and see how the bank balance looks then.

• 501c3 update:

• We are being asked to submit our articles of incorporation to proceed to the next step in the process, however we can probably submit the bi-laws.

• Staff Appreciation:

• Kimberly and Renée have set up a schedule for a week’s worth of events to take place during the first week of June. A letter and sign-up genius will go out by Friday May 15th outlining what will happen and how families can help out, with options for giving money, food and time – all contributions welcome (and optional)!

• June Family Fun Day:

• Many activities will remain the same as last year, with the exception of ponies (not doing), photo booth (adding) and having a dj and bubble machine (also adding).
• We will need tents to provide shade. A request will be sent out to families asking if they could lend us any.
• Julie anticipates spending a maximum of $600 on related costs.

• Next year:

• We still need a president, and other positions also need filling.
• Amy will send out a sign-up genius requesting volunteers for the PCC for next year and Kelty will forward this to incoming families.

• Other business:

• The Best Buddies program is paying for Elaine Kessler to come in and perform for the children on June 3rd and 4th.
• After the school year ends, Kelty will be running social groups for incoming preschool families to attend. The PCC will have a table set up so families can get information on volunteering for the PCC and purchase spirit wear.
