Bob Edwards collected $180 from can & bottle redemptions just in the last 2 weeks.
Current Events Update:
Pennie reported that 100 runners registered for the 1st First Annual 5K Race held on June 6 in spite of the rainy weather. The Knoxville Veterinary Clinic sponsored the medals for the winners in each age category, and brass plaques on stadium stones were given to the male and female overall winners Bryan Schlotterback and Chris Cunningham. The KNIA/KRLS Big Red Radio was also there to help with announcements and award presentations.
Pat Kading reported that invitations were sent today for Homecoming 2009, celebrating “5 Decades of Spirit” with participation from past KHS cheerleaders. 10 KHS Alumni classes will hold their reunions during Homecoming.
Fundraising:
KAA will co-sponsor the Celebration Iowa Singer & Jazz Band presentation at Celebrate community Church on July 15. A portion of ticket sales will go to SOS. KAA will also sponsor a Spaghetti Dinner before the concert, with special prices for Veterans, with all proceeds to benefit SOS.
It was suggested that the brass plaques on stadium stones used as awards in the SOS 5K race be sold as a fundraiser.
Pennie circulated one of the memorial envelopes to be placed at all local funeral homes.
Shirley Ward has agreed to manage a second SOS Rummage Sale in the fall.
Stadium Update:

The school has agreed to move the steps to the Press Box to the opposite end to facilitate the flow of traffic from ticket sales in the Towers.
Stadium Clean-Up day has been scheduled for Wednesday, August 26 at 5:30 pm.
Pennie asked if there was any further business. There was none. The meeting was adjourned. The next meeting will be held on July 8, 2009 at 6:30 PM at Swamp Fox.
