Meeting called to order by Al Tolomeo at 9 a.m.

St. Patrick’s Day Parade went well.  Attendance was down this year due to colder temperatures.  Many people watched from their cars parked along the route.  The bag pipers could not play due to the cold temperatures and ended up playing afterwards at three of the local restaurants.  There will be a wrap up meeting after this meeting. 

Woofstock will be our next big event on June 3rd and 4th this year.  Watch for meeting planning dates coming up.

Mary Jane Dower reported that the Farmers Market starts June 14th, 10 a.m. To 2 p.m. every week until September 20th this year.

Summerfest will be held this year on July 8 with fireworks.  There is a planning meeting following this meeting at the North Warren Chamber building.

  • Meeting called to order by Don Butler at 9 a.m.
  • Brant Lake Winter Carnival went well.  Attendance was down this year affected by the weather.  There will be a wrap up meeting after this meeting.  Foosball was our biggest outlay of money.  We decided to focus on print and social media this year.  Advertisements on Foosball walls helped greatly with expenses.  Brandon thanked all who participated and helped with the event.

Brant Lake Winter Carnival: February 25, 2017:

Advertising space is still available for sides of  the Human Foosball court that will be used at the Carnivals, Woof Stock and available for any other groups who want to borrow it. We’ll be putting 2 ads on each 4×8 plywood ‘side’, both inside and out. Garnet signs will copy your logo or ad onto a sign we can stick on the court. We have +/- 40 openings – cost to advertise is $50 (Garnet signs is charging us $20 each to make the signs) so the remainder will help offset cost of building the court, goal cages, paint, etc…..  If you want to be included, just send your logo or what you want on your sign (jpg format or let me know if Garnet signs has your design) to [email protected] and we’ll take care of the rest!!!

Payment can be sent to TLBA – PO Box 56 – Chestertown, NY 12817

We need volunteers (at least two per shift 11AM – 4PM) to sit in one hour segments at the info table at the Carnival to sign teams up for the Out House Races and have people sign disclosures for any athletic events they’ll be participating in. If you can give us an hour and help us out it would really be appreciated!!!! A few people to help out on Rte 8 with parking are also needed…

Boy Scouts will be selling hamburgers & hotdogs (provided by the TLBA) on the ice Read more →

Community Rack Cards: We need to get started on 2017 Community rack cards. Brandon will take care of layout – Patty Berg will get TLBA dates to him and Brandon will get Chamber events.
