Layne Reihart gave the secretary's report. We then were given the treasurer's report. We talked about our upcoming sandwich sale. We will be selling Sweet Bologna, Turkey and Ham Sandwiches. We discussed what countywide fundraisers we will be doing and decided to sell Joe Corbi's Pizza and Cookie Dough, Gardner's Peanut Butter Meltaways and Country Creations Candles.
