Summary
The board approved three grants and donations: ecology education equipment ($3,007.76), a Buckaroo Baseball Club donation for PHS ($21,000), and Pendleton Wrestling Club support ($5,000); the board asked for thank-you letters and noted the science grant recipient should be PHS rather than SMS.
Michelle Jones, Director of Business Services, presented three grant awards for board approval: OSTA/DIACK Ecology Education Program — macroinvertebrate equipment for $3,007.76; Buckaroo Baseball Club Inc. — PHS baseball donation/spring break tournament support for $21,000; and Pendleton Wrestling Club — PHS wrestling team gear for $5,000. The board approved the grants unanimously and requested letters of appreciation be sent to each donor. Minutes record that the science grant should be attributed to Pendleton High School rather than SMS.
The approvals were made by motion (Director Beth Harrison) and second (Director Anne Keeler) and carried unanimously. The grants will be administered by the district per normal acceptance and accounting procedures; no timetable for expenditure or specific project details beyond equipment and program support are recorded in the minutes.
