Amy called the meeting to order at 7 P.M. with Carol, Romelle, Joan, Janet, Donna, and Jeanne present. Jennifer arrived shortly afterward.
The secretary's report of the May 3rd meeting was filed for audit.
The Treasurer's report showed a balance on hand of $2104.72 as of July 31; however, $750 which had been previously designated has not yet been spent: That includes the $500 to cover extra hours for staff for summer program activities, $100 toward a changing table for the men's room, $100 for frames/framing for the historic picture collection, and $50 toward the newly formed Marinette/Oconto County Literacy Council. Receipts included $23 from items left from the spring rummage sale that Claire Bergstrom displayed at her rummage sale over Memorial weekend, and proceeds from the food sale in front of the library during Memorial Day parade, which amounted to $98.14. There was competition from the Masons organization across the street, so we had more food than necessary, but members bought the remainder. Several people asked for chips; we had sloppy joes, hot dogs/chili dogs, water and soda available. Treasurer's report was filed for audit.
The puppet shows have been a big success with 15-20 children attending. Laura has incorporated some finger plays into the puppet show programs.
The historic pictures have been framed and are now on display.
Attendance has been poor at the adult summer programs, featuring local authors and food preservation. The remaining programs on the evening summer schedule are the Temple Family History, Mill Night, the Osterman Family Bluegrass group, and Falls Photo Night. Randy Peterson will perform on August 11 during the afternoon.
The annual book sale will be held on September 8, 9, 10; Woman's Club will hold a bake sale on September 8th in conjunction with the book sale.
A representative is needed for the County Library Services Board, which meets 6 times a year. The person selected must be approved by the Library Board and by the Oconto County Board.
Donna displayed the two quilts which have been donated for the November 19th raffle, made by Virginia Draeger and Donna Bubolz. There will be an Avon basket (Janet VanDeHei), bicycle (Sara Denis), and afghan (Jeanne Dessart). There is once again a very nice NASCAR jacket. Donations are welcome and you may call Joan at 846-2673 if you would like to make a donation. Donna and Jeanne will compose a letter to businesses requesting donations and Tracey will follow up. Donna has the tickets and she and Janet will sell them at Witts.
Amy and Sue will weed the flower beds and Amy will get mulch.
It was mentioned that the Lioness Club is looking for community service projects, and might be a possible source of help for the booksale.
The next meeting will be Nov. 1. The motion to adjourn was made by Jennifer and seconded by Janet.
