 BOARD  MEETING  cont.  Old  Business.         David  Getreu  gave  a  brief  history  of  the  formation  of  the  Granville  Kiwanis  Foundation.    The  Foundation  was  approved  by  the  IRS  in  2008.    Ralph  McGraft  was  the  Treasurer.    It  was  decided  at  that  time  the  money  from  tent  and  stage  rental  would  go  into  Club  Ops  Account  and  not  the  Trust  Account.    The  income  for  the  tent  and  stage  rental  in  2008  was  around  $4,000  and  now  it  is  in  the  $9,000  to  $10,000  range.         The  Foundation  board  consists  of  the  Club  Officers  (5).      The  Foundation  year  is  based  on  the  calendar  year.    The  club  year  is  based  on  October  1st  to  September  30th.  Therefore  the  IRS  tax  forms  for  the  Foundation  are  filed  in  May  and  the  Club  IRS  tax  forms  are  filed  In  February.         The  Total  Value  of  the  Foundation  is  $96,800.    The  Principal  of  the  Foundation  is  $70.000.     The  Trust  principal  funds  cannot  be  used,  unless  the  Foundation  Board  votes  to  make  them  unrestricted  funds.  Next,  the  Club  Board  would  vote  to  approve  the  Foundation  Boards  unrestricted  funds  action.    Then  the  club  membership  upon  two  (2)  weeks  written  notice  would  have  to  approve  the  Foundation  and  Club  board  actions.    This  would  require  a  majority  vote  of  club  members  present  at  the  meeting.     All  assets  of  the  Foundation  are  used  to  support  the  mission  of  the  club.  Originally,  March  2009,  the  funds  were  invested  in  money  market  accounts  and  CD’s  until  the  first  amount  of  money  was  designated  principal  of  the  Foundation.  Then  the  Board  decided  to  invest  the  money  in  the  Franklin  Income  Fund,  Class  C.    The  Board,  to  support  the  mission  of  the  club,  can  use  the  dividends  generated.     The  Foundation  Board  is  to  meet  the  first  Monday  of  each  quarter.  New  Business.  

• The  Coalition  for  Housing  is  requesting  $1,500.    I  didn’t  hear  an  explanation  of  what  the  money  will  be  used  for.  The  Young  Children  Priority  One  Committee  will  donate  the  funds.    No  Board  action  required.  

• Granville  Rec.  District  is  asking  for  funds  to  support  the  Winter  Sports  Program.                                                                                           Jerry  Miller  chair  of  the  Youth  Services  Committee  suggested  we  not  donate  to  this  fund,  since  his  committee  has  supported  the  spring  and  summer  sports.    No  action  taken  by  the  Board.
