  3. Scholarship Committee: The Scholarship Selection Committee will meet at Flynn's on May 18th to select this year's candidates from the applications.

New Business:

  1. There is interest in forming a Health and Safety Committee. If you are interested in being on this committee, let Barb Alderfer know.
  2. The Membership Committee is updating the personal information on our members. Forms for each person were handed out to building reps to check for incorrect information. If the information is not correct, make the changes and return to the building rep.
  3. Gail Barbadora would like to find someone interested in being trained for the Membership Committee. Gail does a great job but she would like to find someone who would be interested in taking it over when she is ready to leave (which we hope won't be for a long, long time.)

Building concerns:

  1. Concerns about the calendars coming out so late. It makes it hard to make plans.
  2. George will check into time differences for second shift custodians.

Next meeting June 14, 2005

Respectfully submitted,

Marilyn Shober
