002All right. Hi everyone. My name is Emma Strickler and I'm currently serving as president of the Amanda Clear Creek FA chapter. Um, I hope you all have had a good summer break and some good time with your families. But I would like to report on some of the activities that the FFA has participated in since the last board meeting. So our first activity was the Ohio leadership camp. We sent five members to this trip and it was at Ohio FFA camp Mingum. So here our members got to participate in various outdoor activities and then they also attended numerous leadership building activities and sessions that they can bring back to our school and chapter. And then our second trip is our Washington leadership conference. So this is actually a trip awarded through a scholarship that our
003chapter gives out and we send two members to Washington DC. So our members got to sightsee in DC and then they also attended leadership building sessions and made connections with people from all over the country. And then a highlight of this trip that we always like to talk about was our community service activity that our two members participated in. So with the help of hundreds of other FFA members from across the country, our members were able to pack over 2,000 food bags for homeless people in DC. And then along with that, our officer team had our annual officer retreat. We also went to Ohio FFA Camp Muskingham this year. So we participated in several different leadership building activities such as an escape room and a high rogues course. And then we also toured several different
004museums um including the Worthers Carving Museum. I can't say it exactly right. And then we also planned for the upcoming school year. And then our final trip was just last week and it was Ohio FFA camp. So during this week-long trip, students spent time outdoors playing volleyball, kickball, there was archery, swimming, canoeing, kayak, all the fun stuff. And they made great connections with FFA members from all over the state of Ohio. But coming up now, we have several different community service activities that we will be involved in. Our first is our annual adopt a highway cleanup. So we have a portion of 159 where we take several me members out there and we just clean up trash on the side of the road. And then our second is Pelatonia which we always send a large
005group to every single year. That's the bike craz um up in Columbus that raises money for cancer. So we just like to help set up for that to make sure the race goes smoothly. Um but that's all we have going on right now and everything coming up. So on behalf of the Amanda Clear Creek FA chapter, we would like to thank the school board for giving us the opportunity to do all these amazing trips. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Yes. Um before we go into the agenda, I'd like to take a moment. >> See you guys. >> Uh I'd like to take a moment to uh introduce two individuals that's on the agenda tonight um formally. So first of all, we have Miss Stephanie Tac. Uh Stephanie is going to be joining us as
006the assistant the prek5 uh assistant principal. Um again working with that role. um she will be um essentially assuming a lot of the responsibilities that Ashley Davis had previously had regarding the uh support for literacy um and um working with with um you know the initiatives that we have providing support to teachers going in the classrooms and and working with them ensuring that we're continuing the journey that we we started the district started approximately four years ago uh and continue the good work that we've been doing. So Stephanie, I don't know if there's anything uh a little background or snippet of kind of uh your background and and what you bring here. >> I don't know if you finished it. Um so I'm Stephanie Tack. I come from T Valley. I was behavior specialist for
007the last three years. Prior to that, I um have extensive extensive experience with intervention and literacy as an intervention specialist for the last I guess 14 years. and I look really I really look forward to being part of the Amanda team and working with our community and our kids. >> Welcome. >> Thank you. >> Um also I'd like to introduce Dr. Festa Shop. Uh Dr. Chop is uh going to be joining us as our elementary principal and uh we'll be sending out some formal introductions here uh soon uh to welcome them to the community. But, uh, Bara, if you don't mind, a little background. >> Um, super excited to be here, uh, to get to know our kids and family members, community. So, I'm super excited. Um, I will be starting my 35th year in
008education. Um, love it just as much, if not more, than day one. So, I cannot wait, um, to begin this part of my journey here. um extensive experience with um third through sixth grade here. I'll be just working with third through fifth. Um but I'm really really excited to dig into the data, look and see where our kids are at and um let's grow them and and do some great things. >> All right, welcome. Yes, thank you. Um and also thank you to uh your spouses for coming uh as well. Uh whenever you're in the education business um that that becomes a family uh family event. So um I definitely appreciate your support uh of them coming into it. Definitely all of our families and our community of our staff members that that they support
009what they do and the services that we provide to the community. >> Thank you. It's nice to meet you both. seen the names in my name here week or so ago. So, it's nice working with you hearing all the good things you'll be doing here with our teachers and so forth in the next year years I should say. >> All right, next item is technology committee update. [Music] >> It doesn't matter. So um we talked about the rate um program which is a federal program where we get a 70% reimbursement on installing um infrastructure is how the money has to be used. Um we replaced 34 switches in 24. We're upgrading to fiber in several areas and that was to replace what was originally installed. So that's pretty old stuff. Um Ethernet is being upgraded
010approximately um $270,000 over five years was allotted and we again we only had to pay 70% of that. um >> 30%. >> Yeah. 30%. Yeah. We were reimbursed for the 70%. And we were able to exhaust almost all of it within that 5year time period. So, we're using our money wisely. Um she also used it to um renew licenses. Um we got new switches in the primary and the fieldhouse. um access points in the primary and the fieldhouse. Um we're replacing servers. Um two of them are on premise. We have a bunch of stuff. We've we've um installed new smart boards throughout the building. Correct. >> Well, that was our last phase. So over the course of several years or so >> um I thought it was funny they they replaced the pots lines POTS
011plain old telephone. >> Yes. >> Um so they're upgrading those kind of lines as well. Um, we are buying some new computer equipment. Um, 32 and the old ones go to support staff. So, we don't just pitch old things. We roll them down. And obviously, the support staff have already been on older models. So, those are the ones that eventually get discarded, sold, right? Um, they're replacing the firewall. Um they put the technology or installing the technology in all the new buildings, cameras, door access, access points, switches, smartboards, phones, sound systems, printers, all of that in our prek, the seven new classrooms, as well as the fieldhouse. And then she gave us some some uh stats on how many repairs um they had over the past year. High school and middle school had increased from
012the prior year, but um the K2 through elementary, there were many less repairs. And when we asked what what she could attributed that to and she said that they've been training the teachers more and more to show the kids this is how you treat these Chromebooks. And she said that's been very helpful. Um they replaced or they bought new Chromebooks for all the third graders. And then finally there's a um cyber security um she attend our technology staff attends workshops and they are tested and um review to make sure that we're we're on course to provide the best cyber security. Did I miss anything? >> Yeah, thanks. I think that's the heart of it, you know, increasing our technology and keeping it up to date and hopefully should carry us forward many years into the
013future. >> That's a great thing. >> Very good. Thank you. Student achievement >> I don't know if it's because we're summer break or not legislative. legislative um of course we know what the governor did at the end of last month. Um he vetoed many um line items. The legislature the house is supposed to reconvene this coming Monday and they're talking about trying to override some of his vetos. They're focusing mainly on the property tax provisions that he vetoed. they are not targeting the um minimum balance that schools can maintain or that they recommend maintain. So we're in a holding pattern to see what the legislator is going to do. >> Thank you. Right. Next item then is the consent agenda number one which includes accepting amendments from the previous meeting on June 25th approving the
014substitute list as presented by the Fairfield County EST and then also a disposal list which includes some old science lab materials that are obsolete. Is there a motion? >> Moves seconds. Any discussion? >> Just want to commend uh Mr. Rosvich. Uh at the end of the year, he really worked through the science lab, the science materials, and uh and offered them out to different class, different teachers for if they would have a unit of study that would use those materials. Uh made sure that things were that were no longer needed and obsolete, we were able to discard u and really trying to set up the STEM teacher um her space and materials um in a good spot for the new year. So, just once again, thank Mr. Cross. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Song. >> Yes.
015>> Dr. Buckley. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Ptock. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Young. >> Yes. >> Mr. Sharp. >> Yes. Treasurations. [Music] >> My report is the bulk of your packet. Yay for me. That happens. Um, so we did get the year closed. We actually got closed on July 1st. Pretty excited about that. Um, and we're able to get uh fiscal year 26 open. Um, some we did finish ahead of what we had forecasted. So I was happy with that. Um, this was the first uh year we were since we have passed the levies and stuff that we were just about even. So we were a little better than even for the year. Our general for the month of um June, our general fund revenues were 1,117,000. Um that just is the uh state foundation settlement.
016We did get some threshold costs and then um investment earnings. Um the interest rates for investments are are staying strong. Um we just of course have less money um as we spent down our um construction funds. Um our revenue is down um year-over-year for the month of June about 411,000 and that is due to the homestead roll back last year we did not receive until June. So um that makes it just about net even. So, um, no surprises. In the month of June, um, our enrollment, um, held through the year at 1,421. Um, it's still about 33 students less than the previous year. Um, but after looking at our numbers coming into fiscal year 26, we should make that up plus um, 15 to 20 students more. So, I look for the first um actual
017FTE report to come out um to be back where we were plus some. Um I believe kindergarten is pushing one. >> What's kindergarten right now? >> Um they're projected right now at 120. Um we anticipate that we will have probably 10 roll in at least. >> So we'll be between 130 and 140 in garden this year. And we had seven class seven. Yeah. Seven classrooms. >> So, and kindergarten was a little bit low last year because of trying not to over half the building um because we were moving into construction. So, um the differentiate it's not um organic students. They were open enroll. So, they weren't just students. So, that that's where we've been able to control the number of students we have. Um so, we should be good now. Um as Dr. roads will
018go over in the construction update. We should be great with seven new classrooms, so have plenty of room um for students. Our interest earnings for the month um were $94,798. Um and this includes our um investments for construction. Um that was down a little bit this month. Um a lot of our monies now are either in Star Ohio or in Redee. And if you call red tree um those investments are not something that we have a month over month strong investment they um they don't all mature like some other um I things we have in our investment portfolio. So we'll see that go up and down. I anticipate um we will be as different products mature for construction we will be putting all those in Star Ohio which is where I pull the funds from
019to pay the contractors. So, we're at a point now where we're going to start dissolving everything and just getting it into Star Ohio. Um, I think Star High is still running a bit today. Um, but on the interest report, I think it's still around 4.5%. So, that's still a pretty strong number. Um, to date, we have received 1,248,250 on interest for the money that we financed um for the construction project. So, um, expenditures were about 2,234,000 and total checks written for June were 4,22,88. Um, our expenditures were down about 27,000. So, that's of 2 million. That's not a whole lot. So, it's about flat. Overall, our expenditures exceed our revenues by one 1,117,000. Um, our salary benefits continue to be our largest expenditure. The current general fund balance is 10,988,862. Um we ended the year
020with incumbrances of 388,934. Um I'd like to commend Lisa for getting um a lot of our POS shut down this year. Last year we we ended with more POS than we should have. She did a good job getting that done. Um so our available cash balance is $10,649,920. Um as always the balance u the 070 um account I like to report with general fund this is our capital projects fund it is 9,245,458 we have um incumbrances of 1,49,000 leaving us an unencumbered balance of 7,835,000 um as part of the new reporting um structure just so we keep an eye on what our carryover balance vision general fund. Um I've added our um to comply with our cash policy um the percentage of our carryover. So to end the year we were at 42.9% um carryover
021to expenditures for the year. So we took the unencumbered general fund balance um and divided it by the um total expenditures for the year. Our total expenditures for the year were $25,12,000. Are there any questions? Um on that report, I did want to go over the construction a little bit. Okay. If there are no questions on that, um, on page 37 of the whole packet, it's a construction report. Um, we still have $7,194,000 left and change in the construction account. Um, again, as you see, we still have three um, well, the CD for Kingston National Bank did mature and we did put that in Star Ohio. So that CD for the July report um I'm sorry for the next will be all birds at zero sorry so that one won't exist no more we two
022so we've got red tree and star Ohio we'll continue to dissolve that red tree account and put that in star Ohio um at the bottom is listed all of our expenses related to the construction project um apply um kind of phase one, K2, phase 2, field housing. So you if you want to know how much we've paid to the architect, you want to know how much we paid to Summit Construction, we have it broken down um by individual projects. And then I also include like any anything we pay directly like tap fees or we will have some furniture um for the K2 edition that should possibly if we pay for it next month um or this month it may be in your August report too. Are there any questions on that? [Music] Is there anything
023else I need to discuss? It's a short short meeting for me. Last probably missed it last month. I got to talk for a really long time. >> All right. So any other So is there a motion to accept financial reports and then >> uh Mrs. Young? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Pock. Yes. >> Dr. Beckley. >> Yes. >> Mrs. S. Yes. Mr. Shark. >> Yes. >> Um I am going to try to have a financial outlook meeting in the month of August sometime for our group. I'd like to re um kind of review what's going on at the state and as current law stands, what what that kind of looks like for the district. Um for the board, it's not tremendously at this point. um if some of the property tax reform goes through, there will
024be some drastic changes. Right now, we're maybe $150,000 difference and obviously over a $25 million budget, that's not a whole lot of money that can't be, you know, shifted. Um it's a lot of money. It's just not a lot of money compared to the budget. So we don't have major but I would like to just for that group so they can see what how things work and then looking at property taxes and and as the legislators continue to meet what that means. Um so if anybody would like to attend meeting those are all welcome because there's no decisions made or anything um at meeting usually Mrs. Young attends. That's it. >> Okay. >> All right. On to item number five, which is the consent agenda number two for personnel. That includes accepting resignations and retirements
025as listed. Approving certified contracts. There's one-year contracts. Also approving classified contracts. There are a couple there. Approving classified substitute contracts as listed.

This is the uh thing with the >> insurance not part of the full litigation >> litigation but just kind of a supporting thing. So is there a motion >> moves there any seconds discussion roll call >> Mrs. Song? Yes. Dr. Bley Mrs. Ktock. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Young. Yes. Mr. Sharp. Yes. Item E is to approve to wave admission fees for all current preK 12 and Clear Creek students to all regular season home athletic events for the 2526 academic year. Motion >> second discussion analysis of what we did. >> We did. No, it's not. It's just
029a report. Um, so I will take Dr. Edwards reminded me I'm like, "Oh, I can bring that." So we increased um athletic admission sales um eight and a half% um from this past year to the year before. So we collected $87,986. Um we also um increased the account that says athletic other um that is um typically other schools coming to participate in track meet to things where there's actually an entry fee. Um Mr. Justice did an excellent job as I'm sure um Mr. Williams will continue of having events here at the school. Um so overall our um well not overall for everything our football so we track football sales separately because those are season ticket holders. So the just the season ticket holders um overall athletic income went from 113,000 to 129,000 last year which
030was really good really good. So very very happy with not charging students. Now we did start charging um senior citizens from the other team um which is often how it's done. So and we were kind of hit or miss with that before. We didn't have a card fast rule. So um that and we charge them a student fee. So they get a discounted rate and we before did not have student rates. rate. So I think the student rate has helped too. >> Mrs. Pink, >> yes. >> Mrs. Young, >> yes. >> Dr. Buckley, >> yes. >> Mrs. Song, >> yes. >> Mr. Sharp, >> yes. Item F is to approve initial state and federal grants for fiscal year 26 along with future allocation adjustments for the grants as listed in all four of them. Is
031there a motion? Sens discussion. There are two grants that um will be added once allocations are finalized from the federal. if allocations are >> I'm being hopeful. >> Yeah, it's kind of a mess right now. So, we'll see what what happens. The other two are um not as significant as Title One and IDA and early childhood. Um they are more um 20 to $40,000 range. Obviously in a grant that's good, but those will have to be less impactful if they don't actually um appropriate those funds. So these right now they haven't been appropriated and allocated. >> One note there, the early childhood grant that is the EC those are the ECE funds that we receive from the state that supports preschool. Um so this will be our third year receiving those funds. Um and they
032did increase that amount per child uh a little bit. So, it's up to a maximum of 170,000 now. >> Thank you.

In our new room, you'll have a nice little display in the back. You won't have to turn around. Just look forward. >> Uh we'll start off with primary editions. So as you can see u the first two pictures that is related to the addition of the concrete area around the basketball hoops was added also the sidewalk. So whenever they went to dig the dirt and lay the foundation they did have to damage some of the soft surface for the playground. Um all of that has been repaired. Um there is a a fresh new seam. It's not just the edge.
036went in about 6 ft or so, made a new seam, uh, and reward the same rubber surface. Um, there you see the sidewalk going up. Um, and then the sidewalk continues down through the the grassy area that goes toward the cafeteria. Um, these are two pictures within the classrooms. As you can see, the spark boards, new spark boards are mounted. Um, and they were sealing the tile today. Um, they will be laying wax next week. So progress um just in the hallways there uh continuing there again just I think it's beautiful the way that they have maintained the exterior brick uh from the 77 gem adds a nice to it uh fieldhouse updates. So just some some additions there. the first one that is where the entryway um the the ticket area whenever you would
037come into on the side of the primary. Um you can see in the middle picture there the addition they're putting up the uh new ticket booth entry area. Um back here you can see where um this will all be concrete. They've laid two of the sections back next to the um stands but they haven't weather hasn't been cooperating so well. They haven't made it all the way up through, but um they do have two sections for them. Um we've started adding in the new black fencing that goes around the the track. Just a reminder, too, there's the black deck of fence that will connect in and run around. So, be a walkway for people to get from the old um ticket booth by the the bus bar and around the side. Uh just a little
038bit here. This will give you an idea of the walkway that goes up next to where the uh concessions football locker room entrance is on this side. Um, of course you can go through the football locker room over to the team room the other side, but there is a second entrance on the other side of the team room. >> Remind me, are there any metal arches over these pillars here? Is there an arch >> there? There are not arches. These are two I believe they're 4 foot. So, it's a total 8 foot span. Uh, two 4 foot gates with the the metal spade. So, black metal gates that open one in and out. >> Okay. >> Um, this is a fresh shot from today. Um, these are the football the lockers in the football locker
039room. Uh, they started down there. They haven't made it up to the locker rooms on the second floor yet, but they've started down in the first floor. This is an update of that conference room um that overlooks the athletic facility of the stadium and the track. And then this is inside um the main area that will have the basketball courts. Uh and then this suspended walking track around the pool outside. Lots of paint. Here's another shot of the concrete that has been laid over in the plaza area. And then just another picture from up on the floor of the suspended track. Uh we met last week um to talk about access control and um having what can be key carded and what access people can have to be able to limit access. We want that
040area to be able to be opened up um but at the same time restricted at certain times. Um all of those will also be able to be programmed through our um access control system. If you remember through the safety grant, that's when we moved everything under a vigilon one umbrella. So then everything has been fortunate that all the cameras and all the access controls we've been able to continue to add to that one system. Uh district office after the meeting you guys I I'll I'm willing to take you uh to take a look at the updates here. Um this is the district office. So this is where Carrie was at. Um, so this is a picture of the formal entryway. Um, the the window where Perry will be able to welcome people coming in. Um,
041her desk will be right here. This will have a door and then a hallway going down uh where my office is. Just on the left will be our enrollment. Um, so benches and chairs out here um a display panel with announcements and things like that going on. So, a little more formal uh entryway into the district office. And we're able to cut a hole at the end of that area to expand into that next room uh to develop more of another meeting room, meeting space, boardroom space. Um so that again kind of district initiatives, district work uh will flow through the district office. um update for 312 office space. Um this first picture here is the high school side. So previously um there was just one desk that was shaped going out uh and came
042you can see where the orange carpet was. Orange color will be taken out. The gray will go all the way in. This is the area where Mrs. Filop Filopoulos will be able to work from public facing for students and parents coming in. Uh Mrs. Liziano will be able to be on this side. It's more student facing from the hallway entry. So students if they um are going to access guidance services um they are just right down that hall. And also of course Mrs. works with athletics. Um we did get the the black spade painted so that pulling that together. And then this is Mrs. Hedg's area middle school secretary. Um she previously this was further out so there was not a lot of space between the doorway uh and her desk. Also um you could
043completely surround her uh on both sides. So this does give her a little bit of um area and space that isn't just wide out out in the middle uh and wide open. Um but then this is the elementary space. um same design they had previously just um updated cabinetry K2 lobby and office area um that is new carpeting and uh paint and then carpet and paint will be going in the conference room just off the K2 lobby. Um earlier Mrs. this hawk had mentioned that she said you you can't tell that it was painted. Um but she was referring to the cabinetry. So the cabinetry previously was uh like a light green cabinetry. So um this is actually we did not replace this cabinetry. It was just painted. So they were able to use like
044a heavy adhesive primer um and then be able to to blend that in. So clean carpet. That's a that's a nice nice addition. Nice clean carpet. Brightens that space up. Um, so we're pretty happy with it. That's it. Questions about >> the primary classroom will be ready. Correct. >> Yes. Um we are right now what we are slated and I believe we will make it is um we will have access to those on July 28th. >> Yes. It's it it is a beautiful area. It is it is really nice space. I think we were so I could remember the hillside thing. >> We do not have the tears in there. It's just more of a >> we were concerned some about people that were walking and then not know yeah know that I think those
045terraces were there >> which was also a cost savings for them because of all the concrete. Do we have any indication on when we may get temporary occupancy? >> Um, we're still pushing for that uh to see if we can get in by the September 19th date. Um, we have put in contingency. We're already planning on not being able to get in there. Um, but Summit is continuing to work to try to push to see if we can get in there by the 19th, but we went ahead and made plans for not being able to get in there until the second home game. So we go ahead. No. >> Well, I was just curious that when um you're putting new fencing around the track and there was always that actual walkway then the black top
046walkway on the outside of the track. >> So will that still be there so you can go from the home side to side and all that? But will that be available for the first game >> right now? The only way to the home side is through the track, right? >> Yes. So fencing will be will be up, >> but that goes around the track, but they'll we have to walk on the track to get to the home bleachers then. >> No, we the the plaza will be finished. >> It'll be finished. Gotcha. >> Because we're doing four games, away games, right, at the beginning of the season. >> Yes. >> So we're not >> Bloom is the first home. Okay. >> So it's actually game three, I believe. Bloom is Okay. policy stuff. First read
047a whole bunch of things. Many of these just reflect um updates in in law. um getting things caught up with with changes at that level. Um Mrs. Young had asked earlier about ED for computer online services. Many of those new definitions and um the changes in there reflected from Senate Bill 29 um items that were had to be updated. Senate Bill 29 was impacted the privacy. So um throughout the year last year we had to send a notification to all parents about general monitoring. um that teachers are able to monitor student devices just on what what we use as GoG Guardian. So they're able to see are they on task, are they doing what they're supposed to do and um things like that that is classified under general monitoring um not looking into something specific.
048If a um monitoring of a device looking at histories and things like that impacts student discipline, then that's whenever we have at least uh a certain time frame that we have to notify the parents that we use the device and look through um the information to um issue the discipline. Um that's really where it it the crux is as discipline and or student self harm. Um so we have to notify the parents. We do that anyway, but this just puts a specific timeline on when we have to notify them. There is you will see um pieces with student with uh student absences and excuses. Um the legislature remove the ability to remove a student's driver's license to suspend a student if they were truent. They weren't coming to school previously. the superintendent could notify uh
049the DMV and uh we could suspend their license. Legislature has removed that ability for superintendents to do that based up on the tenants. Um so that impacts a few different license or a few different policies that are connecting it together. Uh religious release release time for religious instruction. Um that is just again aligning to the um law that was passed. We were um already had that policy in place um but the the new law require the ability to do that. We already had that in place. So just minor changes that go along with that. And um then weapons of school and student expulsions allows for the superintendent to uh some more flexibility when it comes to suspensions and and expulsions. >> So we're just supposed to say pretty pretty please come to school. Um the
050the budget bill did add some so previously had House Bill 4410 and it was very rigid about timelines and you had to meet certain timelines and have certain meetings and you're meetings. Um the budget bill did change some of that and added some flexibility for districts. So it isn't as much about did you meet the timeline or not. It is as much about did the adult check the boxes. It's more about um is the student making progress toward uh their attendance? Um are they completing the plan? Are they um working with the school? Um that also aligns to the work group I'm part of. I'm one of two superintendents on an attendance work group through the ESC. Um and that is working with juvenile court. So together the the ESC hired well one actually it'll
051end up being three um case workers to work for attendance in addition to the attendance officer. So they're able to work with families and then if they are implementing those plans then in conjunction with juvenile court then that's whenever the more extensive um consequences come into place. But it really does open up the the budget bill does open up more flexibility for the school to be involved and and say if progress is being made or not policies as fun as I can make policy if not is there a motion Can we go into executive session? >> Two seconds. Discussion. >> Before you do that, can I just make one announcement for the board? Um, so we did you did uh approve going into the strategic planning process with Shlei. Um, I have sent that information
052to them. They I have a phone call with them actually this Friday to get that scheduled our initial work. Um, and then that will take place throughout the year this year. Um so the end of the year we should have or we will have um a up an updated strategic plan with actionable items um and then in a format that we can publicly distribute um to our community. >> Okay. more discussion. [Music] >> Mrs. Yes. >> Mrs. Young. Yes. Mrs. >> Dr. Bugley. Mr. Sharp. >> Yes. >> Mr. [Music] >> Yes. >> Have a good time. >> No. >> All my volunteers. Yes. My favorite. Now to
