Brownfield ISD approves $1,000 activity-fund budget amendment and reports $10,000 district donation to Pack Pals
Summary
Board approved a $1,000 amendment to Function 36 to record an after-the-fact tournament donation (identified in the meeting as from 'Universe') and heard that the district donated $10,000 to Pack Pals; administrators highlighted event revenue and officials' costs as reasons for the amendment.
The board approved a budget amendment to increase Function 36 by $1,000 to accept an after-the-fact donation tied to a recent basketball tournament; administration identified the donor as "Universe" and said the increase allows the district to record and use the donated funds. Superintendent Chris also noted the district made a $10,000 donation to Pack Pals after paying bills.
"This one came from Universe in the amount of $1,000," the superintendent said when describing the donation that triggered the modest budget amendment. Administration described how gate receipts and entry fees, together with donations, offset officials' costs and allowed the district to host tournaments and community events. The board moved and approved the budget amendment by voice vote.
