The meeting opened at 4:41 by Bruce.
Minutes – The minutes from the March 12th meeting, motioned by Ona seconded by Dawn, were approved unanimously.
Maintenance – There is still a light/baluster out in KAP. Bruce will call Cheryl. The driveway has been swept, but the lawn not cleaned up yet. The Community Center received approval for the $25,000 in improvements at Town Meeting.
Health & Human Services – Blood Pressure Screening and Foot Care are on-going services offered the 3rd Thursday of the month. Please be sure to call to make an appointment for foot care. No appointment is necessary for blood pressure screening.
Seniors – March Madness in the Senior Center. “Two Old Friends” packed the house on March 14th. Seniors totally enjoyed the event stomping and singing along to all the old Irish music. Movie day is always a hit with 12-15 seniors in attendance on the 3rd Friday of the month.
KAP – No report. Karen will touch base with Carrie to see where things with the preschool stand.
Parks & Rec – The Spaghetti Dinner was a huge success. Thank you to ALL who helped to make this such a wonderful event. The Road Race is coming together; folks are signing up. The details about road restrictions need to be worked out and formally put into place. An email was sent to Active Junior about their summer programs. Karen has a list of grant opportunities that she will share. French’s Park Cleanup will take place on Sunday May 19th at 10AM. We’re going to try something different this year and have a potluck lunch for those who help with the cleanup. Meat will be provided; bring a dish to share. You may also wish to bring work gloves, a rake etc.
The idea to combine the Parks & Rec Committee meeting with the BACC Governance Board meeting was suggested since many of the same members sit on both committees. Debbie and Margaret will check with the rest of the P&R committee.
The meeting adjourned at 5:13.
Respectfully submitted,
Karen Hambleton, Secretary
Next meeting: May l4th 4:30pm
