A parent volunteer, identified in the record as Katie Mark, asked the council to consider a donation to support a Missoula Children’s Theatre residency at Elmira Elementary. She said production costs total $3,900 and that the group is fundraising through family tuition and local promotions; scholarships will be offered to ensure no child is turned away.
Council moved to provide $500 from discretionary funds to help cover production costs and support participation; the motion passed by voice vote. Staff confirmed available discretionary funds and the motion was recorded as approved.
Council members encouraged the volunteer group and noted connections with local schools and PTA fundraising plans.
