Quarterly Report
October 2000 December 2000
Newsletter:
No money was spent this quarter.
Administrative:
During this quarter the Enfield Community Council spent $300.31. This
includes postage stamps, carpet cleaning of the community building and a
repair of the outside entryway - downstairs - of the community building.
Summer Camp:
No money was spent this quarter. We are now starting to plan for Summer
Camp. Due to the shortage of lifeguards,last summer,a lifeguard training
proposal has been written by the TCYB to have Newfield, Enfield and Danby
sponsor a lifeguard training course to be offered at the Ithaca College Pool..
This proposal is still in the works and not yet confirmed. This would
guarantee us a lifeguard for our Summer Camp 2001
Teen Program (This includes MJF Youth Employment & Enrichment
Program)
During this quarter we spent $1,423.12 on our Teen Program, $1,355.71 on
our MJF - Youth Employment Program, and $1,372.33 on our Enrichment
Program. Please find attached Shannon McSurely's detailed Program Reports-

E.C.C. purchased 45 Basketball Jerseys for the 3rd5 4th and 5th grade
basketball teams. The cos%was $585.00. The cost was a little higher, than
usual because the Jerseys are- of better quality and will last for several years.
The kids will turn them in at the end of the season.
