RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends that City Council accept donations totaling $2,750

 

BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)

Council policy requires that any donation greater than $500 must be approved by the City Council.  City Council is being asked to accept three donations totaling $2,750.  Donations are for sponsorship to Camp Blue.  Camp Blue is an opportunity for incoming 7th graders to spend a week with various first responders with the goal of building positive relationships to help mold them into school and community leaders. These funds will go to help cover the cost of transportation, lunches, snacks, t-shirts and other activities throughout the week.  The following donations were received:

Bill and Anne Cole            $1,000
Rocky Mountain Glass     $750
Billings Clinic                     $1,000
