Budget approved for spring concert

At the SFSS board of directors meeting this morning, Jan. 20, the board voted to approve a budget for a Spring concert.

As recommended by Financial and Administrative Services Committee last Wednesday, the Board voted to reallocate the remaining amount from special events (e.g. the Fall concert) towards the 2014 Spring concert. The budget for the Spring concert is approximately $39,000.

The motion was discussed for close to one hour as board members brought up their concerns regarding a potential beer garden, security, ticket sales discrepancies from the Fall concert, expense and finances, and the genre of music to be played.

In the end, the motion was passed by a vote of seven to three. At-large representative, Clay J. Gray, and external relations officer, Chardaye Bueckert, asked that their opposition be noted in the minutes.

As it stands, students can expect a party sometime in early April before exams.
