The following items were discussed:
Dinner/ Dance: Contract was signed and deposit given to secure the date for our Centennial Dinner/Dance for Feb 23, 2013 at the South Gate Manor in Freehold. Cost will be $100. per person.
Commemorative Journal: Stan reported that he had contacted one printer and received a proposal for the Ad Journal as follows: 60 pages, color front and back page, black and white inside pages. 200 copies Cost: $1500 or $23-25 per page. We will look to more printers for pricing. We need to set the prices for the ads at the next meeting so that we can begin selling ads. Tom Boyle suggested Preston Sharpe who Tom will get in touch with. It was suggested that Mike O'Brien, Bill Maxwell would be excellent choices for Ad Salesmen. Rick will contact Rich Diaz to see if he can help us find a printer and lend his expertise.
Guests: Still stands at 28.
Mass: The date and time of the Mass have been set with St. Rose for Saturday, Feb 23, 2013 at 4 pm in the Church. Stan has been trying to meet with Fr. Jim to finalize the celebrants for the mass. He will try again after the Holidays
Publicity: Information is on Web Site and we need to get an article in the local publications. Joe Luongo will submit an article.

History: No Report
Commemorative Pins, etc: Shirts and Pins are ready for orders and sales as of the February Council meeting. Orders for shirts must be prepaid and we have over 100 pins in stock for sale. We agreed to sell pins for $10.00 and other prices as mentioned in the minutes of the Sept 2011 meeting.
Music: Joe Luongo and Tom Boyle will work on finding a live band or DJ for the Dinner/Dance. This is urgent since musicians are booked a year in advance
