We will possibly be able to get custom made doors instead. Vacuum: We need a vacuum really bad. Motion to purchase a ShopVac with a maximum price of $350 ASAP (within reason) passed (20:1).

It was proposed that we purchase tickets with the words ‘Refund’ on them.  It should first be discussed with Jeff O’Brien and costs will be examined. Ducktales Posters: Should we have 1 or 2 posters; general consensus: 2 posters.
