Scholarships:  Chet suggested that we have scholarships done early April if possible so that the schools may announce.  Next meeting we will get a committee together.

Survey Committee:  Chet suggested that we get a Survey Committee together to set goals for 2007.  This will help the PPA stay on track and accomplish a lot more.

New Business:  Oscar wanted to remind everyone that the recipient of the Andrew Hoskins Award receives $500.00 toward training.  After last year the family wanted to extend this fund to assist or be a scholarship to a Police Cadet.  The family would like to donate $500.00 and they want to see if the PPA will match.  The idea put forward was that a cadet could submit a request for the scholarship based on family need.  The Hoskins Family and a PPA member were suggested as scholarship review personnel. 

Chet advised that Lt. Anderson had requested a donation from the PPA to help fund the after awards dinner and dance.  This donation would be for the DJ and the amount requested was $250.00.  It was noted that the city would not pay for this expense.  Cristal made a motion to accept and Judy second.  All present were in favor and none apposed. 

Chet has been approached in regards to sending a PPA T-shirt to the sponsors of the Police trading cards as a gift.  After discussion by the members present it was decided to make a motion to accept.  M. Wilson made the motion and Larry seconded.  All were in favor and none apposed.
