Meeting Minutes January 11, 2020
Submitted by Kathi Warm

Board Trustees present:  Allison Watkinson, Steve Giblin, Kathleen Warm, Bob Hendricks.  Absent was Sandra Vance.
There were 27 members that signed in.
The meeting was held at the FCSA boardroom, and called to order by Allison Watkinson at 10:05 a.m.
Invocation was given by Steve Giblin, and followed by the Pledge of Allegiance.
Allison recognized the new members that were in attendance.
Minutes of November 9, 2019 were read, approved by Sandy Herman, seconded by Phyllis Giblin, and passed unanimously.

TREASURER’S REPORT
Allison posted a copy of Income/Expense Report from 11/1/19-12/31/19 on the screen and gave a detailed report of the items.  Allison also explained that a more detailed report could be accessed via our website.  She also noted that the Board present today voted to join the Chamber of Commerce for $50.00.

OLD BUSINESS
FCSCC hosted 2 movies in Dec. at no charge.  On December 19, “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms” was shown for the children.  On December 21, “Aladdin” was shown for everyone.
Texas Hold’Em brought in $395.00 and Allison donated $5.00 for a total of $400.00.
Our taxes were paid Jan. 9, 2020.
Fort Clark Days has $3,189.00 in the account.  It will cost approximately $7,000.00 for Fort Clark Days to happen.  $1,800.00 for the camels, and $500.00 for the Buffalo Soldiers.  The total cost for this event also includes the porta-potties, electricity, accommodations and meals for the re-enactors, and other services and items.
New Year’s Eve Dance.  It was cancelled as it was too much work to do it, not a lot of volunteers, and we could only limit it to 50 people.
FCSA currently charges us $25.00 for use of the Post Theater for movie night which was the same as last year. Community Council Board voted to keep the schedule the same as last year.  The movie will be shown on the second Saturday of the month which is the same day we meet.  After Dec. 31, 2019, CC needs to renegotiate the usage agreement for use of the theater for movie night with the FCSA.
