Discussion Item from John Godwin: We have been trying to find ways to fund a <br />means to add lighting to Field #7 at the Sports Complex as a means to attract and <br />support more and larger tournaments, many of which would attract out of town <br />teams and their supporters. Previous cost quotes have ranged from $150,000 to <br />$200,000. However, a recent partnership between Musco, (a national lighting <br />company) and Hargis Electric offers us a chance to get the lights put in place for <br />approximately $80,000. We believe these costs can be funded with HOT revenues <br />under state law., <br />D. President's Report <br />E. Event Committee Report <br />F. Director's Report <br />G. NETT Update <br />H.
