Planning for 2008-2009
*picnic tables and/or benches, trash barrels: will watch for deals over the summer, will plan to have some for the back to school picnic (Sams, EBS on clearance, Della’s suggestion-bench ends)
*Harvest Fest, tentative date Sat., Oct. 18, 10-2, in conjunction with Blue Hill Wine and Food Festival: including crafts, games, pumpkin and apple recipe contest, etc.  Accept donations rather than charge admission.  Erin is collecting ideas.
*Shani suggested having a fall fundraiser to help raise money to donate for fuel help for families next year.  Will put on Sept. agenda.
*Approved $50 gift certificate as thank you for Wanda at South Street Market who has been very supportive of the PTF with pizza prices and food donations.
*Will watch for a fundraising opportunity over the summer while summer visitors are here.  Melissa and Shani said they could “help.”
*Will consider a clothing and sports equipment exchange in the fall, as has been suggested by several parents.

*August meeting prior to start of school: scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 18, 4 PM in the library (but Beth now has a conflict—watch for a possible new date or time, the 19th or 20th).
