There were no minutes from the May meeting as it was cancelled due to a lack

Treasurer Donna Chase reported that the balance in the Business Account was $13,915.50 from May 2007. With $1,232 expended, this left a balance of $12,683.50 as of June 4, 2007.

Old Business:

1. Alice Sharf ordered and bought a Sears Kenmore Progressive Vacuum bagless canister for $499. Donna will investigate a warranty and pick up at Sears.

2. Another trustee is needed for the Board and it was checked to see if any write-ins would be interested. Discussion was on any people who could be approached to see if they would be interested.

New Business:

Pat discussed the Summer Reading Program which is entitled, "Reading Road Trip, USA." She will be using maps for kids to track their reading by states.

Other:
