President: We have a few new members this week, who sat in and watched how a Filmboard meeting took place,
it was probably very exciting for them.
We need a couple of volunteers for K-Day to sit at the table, enjoy the
sun (hopefully) and encourage new members to join.
Vice
President: Let’s try to keep up the good
work by filling on the positions for this weekend. There’s a chance of having two required
Saturday night cleanup, unless we get a few more members.
Secretary: There is an up to date list in the Filmboard
office pending all the newbies we get next week. The cleanup lady asked if we could mop up the
drips from the can boxes, she will leave the closet door open by the stairs
leading to the projectionist booth.
Treasurer: Scott estimates 400+ tickets were sold for
Harry Potter 3. We did decently well on
concessions sales as well.
Publicity: Our faithful leader missed putting the table
tents out on Saturday; he’ll come through for us this weekend. Adam didn’t have the table tents ready, they
will be in the MUB on top the mailboxes, if you need directions his email is asgiacob@mtu.edu.
They should be there sometime on Thursday.
Equipment
Supervisor: There was a problem with the oil oozing onto the floor, if this
should happen again, let public safety know.
There was something wrong with the box, we still have one left, but we
should think about getting some more sticks just in case. There was a problem with missing reels for
Harry Potter 3, and they were unhappy about sending them next
day air. It sounds like the movie will
be coming in on Tuesday, so we can use 2-day air in case this happens. The shipping shop would like to be reimbursed
by someone, Niko gave our membership list to them so
they know who to contact. Matt will
straighten things out with Mary.
Web
page: Webpage is updated. A few suggestions were presented, a link to
the term list that says “No Flash Required” and possibly a list of concessions
we sale, but more likely popcorn, pop, and candy. If anyone has any thing else they’d like Paul
to do with the webpage, his email is pdlefief@mtu.edu.
Advertising:
We still have a slide supplier, and Lisa would like everyone to contribute at
least one slide. They can be anything as
long as it’s appropriate and readable from a long distant (high contrast
colors). The USG president would like a
few slides, and if the need be, Lisa will make up some flyers for recruiting
new members.
Concessions: Frank says its good,
so keep on selling.
Advisor:
Old business: Constitution was tabled until another time.
New
business: There was a motion to hold a
seed counting contest, with the closest 4 people receiving prizes. The top prize will be a day in the life of a
Filmboard member, and with that all the perks.
Matt will take care of all the FINE fine
print. Greg’s new scare tactic with the
magic hat seemed to work very well as the Saturday night cleanup filled without
a problem.
Also,
projectionists be sure to prop open the pop coolers during the week.
