We have $445.61. Don asked about CPC. Ray said that was a separate account. (Their money came from intra-area). Therefore not neccessary to add to our report. Roger C. said that it did and would like to be added others agreed. Ray said that he would bring that report to the next meeting. CPC will have it's own report and show expenses. As it stands per Sue T. that Ray has control over the distribution of such funds.
