Kim Bell presented new equipment samples he received from a vendor he has been working with on supplying new equipment for the Tigers 09 season. The cost to suit 100 kids with helmet, pads, pants and jerseys would be $8,500.00. If the Tigers, acted on this deal by February 28, the supplier would discount the cost to $7,500.00. Kim stated the supplier would take a post dated (May 31, 2009) check in the amount of $4,000.00 to start processing the order for the equipment and the remaining balance would be due in May. A motion was made to issue the post dated check in the amount of $4,000.00, motion was seconded and the vote carried, with one opposed.
Registration fee of $200.00 was thought to be too expensive by some present. It was asked if the budget could stand dropping the registration fee back to $150.00 and also have an option to opt-out of fundraisers by paying a set fee set by the club at the time of registration. A motion was made that Kirk work up the budget with the $150.00 and report findings at the next meeting. Motion was seconded and vote carried, there were 3 opposed to the decrease in registration fees.
Kim Bell stated that the plans for the rebuilding of a new concession stand would cost $660.00 to obtain.

Kim also stated he has already obtained a roofing company to donate supplies for the roof.
The first registration will be held on April 18, 2009 at City Hall in La Marque. William Sowell stated that Keith Bell had informed him that renovations will be completed by then.
