Minutes by Johnny and Mrs. Clay
1. Executive Board Items
a. Britton Bronco Buddies: Sidney, Maryam, Ananya, Natalie. Sidney and Ananya encouraged participation. Mrs. Clay asked for people to sign-up, but no one did for March 7, 2015.
b. YAC T-shirts and project proposal Jessica
Jessica decided that there will not be a YAC t-shirt this year. Then she introduced Elizabeth Freeman who was exploring a self-defense project sponsored by her family who has connections with a non-profit called Somebody's Momma. Liz is proposing to have a self-defense class facilitated by her uncle who is a police officer at a Casady or community location-if administrative approval is not granted (Liz will talk to Coach T.). The cost will be $20 with proceeds going to Somebody's Momma.
c. STUCO's Walk-A-Thon Dylan, Cathy Z. It is scheduled to be on Wednesday, April 1 in the afternoon. Neither Dylan nor Cathy were in attendance. Sidney/Jessica will talk to Marshall about walk a thon. All we know is that we have been asked to participate, but we do not know what we are expected to do. Mrs. Clay will not be on campus that day.
2. YAC Membership Items
a. Chinese New Year Lunch Reflection: Allison and Daniel. It was a great activity that generated over $1,000 for Half the Sky Foundation. Neither Allisson nor Daniel were present. Mrs. Clay asked if YAC could have done more to help the day of the lunch to which the membership responded that if the officers of the club requested, that could be an option for next year. There was also a suggestions to maybe have a video of the festivities going on in China going during the lunch.

---YAC volunteer chapel presenters needed to introduce Mr. Rainbolt and read names of award recipients, Mrs. Clay and available administrators will give the awards. No volunteers. It needs to be 2 YAC members not receiving an award. We also need one YAC member to handle awards to Mrs. Clay and pertinent administrators
---YAC volunteers needed to organize and facilitate possible social gathering(Ice Cream Social) after chapel on PSA delivery day.
