President Sue Williamson called the meeting to order at 7:00 PM. A motion was made and accepted to approve the February minutes.  

The president announced that the nominating committee would like to convene at the end of the month to consider new Board candidates. All current Board members should notify the President if they wish to remain on the Board. In the future the names of those on the Board will be published in the Sauganash Sounds. 

Due to new information a motion was made to reconsider the date of the 4th of July Celebration. After discussion the date was changed to Monday July 5^th. A second motion was made to reconsider the Board's position on beer for the event. After discussion the Board voted to reinstate the long held tradition of serving beer at the event. Park employees cannot participate in set up or clean up. They can only unlock the doors. Volunteers will be needed from the community for this event and community member should be encouraged to volunteer via the hot line.

The Board discussed the issue of support for lifting the dry status for the 15^th precinct which includes the business area on the North East corner of Cicero. After much discussion a motion was made and approved that the Board take a neutral position on the issue. The general consensus was that we need more information on the subject before a different opinion could be considered.
