Darla has been in contact with Lion Steve from the Perham Lions in order to set things up.
Possible start date for Lion Mark to leave from Moorhead
April 21. Darla is going to get a firm date on that.
They are very excited about this.
Things that were suggested that we could do:

Brent motioned to accept/ Sharon seconded.
New Business:
Time to elect officers again. It was decided that we should keep with a two year term. There was no discussion. Everyone thought this was great.
Brent motioned to accept/ Sharon seconded.
Riverarts, Potato Days, Fly-Pancake fundraiser-never too early to start thinking about. Darla should have the Riverarts form soon.
Instead of adding more events to our plate, it was suggested by Sharon that we improve on what we do. Fair hair was a suggestion. Bigger signs, more flash to our booths especially for Potato Days.
Dawn motioned to adjourn meeting, Sharon seconded.
