Joyce will try to place some cails. 2. Treasure: There is approximaCe�y 3,000.00 in savings and 2,000.00 in checking. A significant amount, which is Shinmachi's will be needed to help fund this summer's Anniversary dinner and exchange celebrations. 3. Shinmachi: There are currently 3 students and 2 adults interested in going to Japan this sumaner. The date is July 16 to 30. There will be I7 coming from Japan as there will be a delegation of 5 officials tn celebrate the lOth year with Shinmachi. Unfortunately, Shinmachi has not given us firm dates, making reservation the diner increasingly more difficult. John submitted a request for a grant from the Roseville Co�munity Fund. It was generally turned down except for possibly getting 500.0� to support the diner. 4. Costa Rica: Two soccer teams from the Cartago area are coming for the USA Cup. There will be 6 additional teams from the San Jose area. {After tihe meeting, it was learned that the USA Cup wi11 be providing transportation the Mal1 of Am., and other places for the partl�ipanCs.} Cartago teams will be staying in the dorms, so we wi11 not have gxeat involvement needs. Apparently', a bus will also meet them at the airport. It now sounds like there could also be a basketball team coming the following week. (Soccer is the week vf Ju1y 16 - 23, and basketball is Ju1y 26, with the team usually arriving on Monday, July 24.) The committee decided that this year we must put requirerments on advance notice. Cartago must let us know by April 28 who is coming and what their age is. There will be a limit of 10 studenCs and 2 adulrs since larger groups are difficult to handle for eranspor- tation, etc. 5. Future Actiivities: The Costa Rica dinner meeting will be June 22 (Thurs.} at the Ova�, starting at 6:3Q. Tom has been working to coordinate this. We need to Iovk at developing folders, video, etc. for it. Joyce is hopefull we will not be at the end of rhe parade this year. Cookies, ice crean, and pop are again planned.
