A. Literature & Libations 2022

 Reviewed menu from Brickhouse and the food is set up for 100-150

 Chris handed out some tickets to local folks.

 Hoping to see a good # of people at the door given promotional activity

 Reviewed 2 examples of center pieces – earth & forest tones. There are 7 altogether. Donation page with QR goes to donation page. Bigger poster will be placed around the building to encourage donations.

 Elevator signs showing people where to go – using wine bottles instead of signs to keep with the theme

 A couple more baskets getting donated (EIU & local photographer)

 Brickhouse is donating a meal for 2.

 McGrady Inn is donating a night’s stay.

 Have some odds and ends from Lola Viola and we can put them in the fall basket

 Friend who owns hair salon (day of pampering) still putting together auction baskets

 Chris did research into silent auction baskets to price accordingly

 Chris is going to CI Living and would be great to have a leaf from the book tree to show the piece of jewellery so he can push the event

 Mini-golf will be set up. Charleston Country Club donated 4 rounds of golf with a cart. Will put your name in a basket and pull to see who wins.

 Program is mostly finalized, just waiting for the baskets to be completed – will function as a mini version of the newsletter.

 If people come without cash we’ve made a station at the service desk with card readers. Can purchase attendance ticket and pay for special tickets to redeem at pendulum painting or book tree.

 Talked about having selfie stations but scaled it back due to school re-starting and traffic at the library picking up.

 We will have a couple photo-op areas with a spooky thing and character cut outs.

6. Adjournment
