Gunnison High School seeks $1,000 donation for scoreboard; council asks staff to follow up
Summary
A request from Gunnison High School for a $1,000 donation toward a new scoreboard at the municipal pool was presented; council members asked staff to contact the coach and local groups to explore donations and community funding rather than using town general funds.
A representative relayed a request from Gunnison High School for a $1,000 donation to help purchase a new scoreboard that would be installed at the town swimming pool to support the swim team.
Council members said the town does not have a standing fund for that type of community donation and asked staff to confirm whether Mayfield residents or students would benefit directly. Staff said Coach Jeremy Vincent had indicated he would send a representative or be present but no one from the school was at the meeting. A council member asked staff to follow up: if Mayfield residents are on the swim team, the request could be presented to local civic groups such as the Alliance or the Lions Club for consideration.
Council members did not take a vote but directed staff to contact the coach, confirm how many Mayfield students use the pool or are on the team, and report back. No donation was approved at the meeting.
