Council had a Zoom meeting on Thursday.
We finally got a trip report from the western trip. 30 skiers went to Fernie and the trip had a profit of $1095.15. Still no report from Killington and the 2026 Killington trip is not on council’s website. The trip account balance is $19,702.11. This money will be used for deposits for the 2026 ski trips.
Elijah Hoffman received the $1000 Jim Kapp Scholarship.
