Thank you for your participation at the General Meeting on September 18th. A copy of the budget presentation will be available for viewing at the SMPO website. The numbers look promising for SMPO and the different committees are working hard to meet and exceed their goals. None of this will happen without your help, volunteering your time, contributing and taking advantage of the programs that generate income for Sands (Bigg’s and Kroger cards, Target, boxtops, Campbell labels, Tyson, etc.).

We have aggressive plans for the new school with 184 drops for computers and 4 laminators that will require a good piece of the budget. Our grant’s coordinator is working hard to find companies that will help us get the computers and laminators we need. If you can connect us with companies that can help or have an idea please contact any person on the Rudder.
