Not present: Dave Anderson, Sam Hennes and Jean Clark. Meeting was called to order by Chairman John Longnecker at 6:30 p.m. Minutes to last month's meeting were approved by Lydia Loven and seconded by Claire Nagel. In the absence of treasurer David Anderson, the board reviewed the treasurer's report. The library has $65,083.30 total in CD's; $12,468.45 total in checking account; and $16,402.08 total in Building Fund checking, which equals a total of $93,953.83. A motion was made by Claire Nagel, seconded by Shirley Johnson, to move $2,000 from the checking account to the building fund checking account and to issue a check for $2,000 to Tom Adams toward the repayment of his loan from the building fund checking account, which will bring the balance owed Mr. Adams to $16,000. Motion carried. Motion by Claire, seconded by Shirley, to approve the treasurer's report. Carried. Washing of the building exterior will be done Tuesday, May 24, by John Longnecker, Nancy Adams and Jerry Rondeau. This will be in preparation of the building being stained and painted. The library is a recipient of a grant from Valspar, who will supply the stain and paint. When the building is being painted (date unknown), pictures will be taken for publicity for the library and for Valspar. The popcorn wagon will be moved Sunday, May 29 from the Adams' outbuilding to the Pequot Lakes Bobberland Park, near the bandstand, where hopefully it will remain all summer. The board is looking for a person or persons to man the wagon during the summer weekends. Friends of the Library report, by John Longnecker.
