Commission accepts Bullpen Booster Club donation for aquatic center timing system
Summary
The board accepted a $7,723.25 cash donation and transfer of an SST timing system valued at $4,919 from the Bullpen Booster Club toward a $21,688 timing-system purchase; the county already has $9,000 budgeted for the remainder and authorized an MOU signature.
Appling County commissioners voted to accept a cash donation of $7,723.25 from the Bullpen Booster Club and to accept ownership of an existing SST timing system (donated equipment value cited at $4,919) toward a new timing system for the county aquatic center.
Staff said the full timing-system package costs $21,688. The boosters offered the cash and to relinquish existing equipment; the county has about $9,000 currently budgeted for the purchase, so staff said the donation would cover the remaining cost. The board authorized a memorandum of understanding to document the donation and allowed county staff to sign the MOU.
Why this matters: The donation reduces the county’s net outlay for a timing system used by schools and recreation programs and transfers ongoing maintenance responsibility for the donated equipment to the county.
