Minutes from June 1, Buhl Model Railroad
Society. Next meeting: Aug. 24: 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at
Preschool Room, Buhl Community Rec. Center
1. Fund Raising? The question was
brought up whether we have permission to raise funds? Answer:
Yes. We can do this carefully by communicating with the front
office to ensure that we don't interfere with their United Way
funding.
2. Relationship to the Buhl Community Recreation
Center? Answer: Full participation with the
Buhl CRC but not actually a part of the Buhl CRC board. We can have our
own independent treasury & treasure but do not have to be audited as a part
of the BCRC. They want us to "keep it simple." We are free
to use the Buhl name but work carefully with the office administration to ensure
that we are on the same page. We have the complete 100% approval of the
BCRC.
