<DIV>Potential budget cuts to the BHS athletic program made the list</DIV>

<DIV>This is not a new issue for BHS or the Berkeley Athletic Fund (BAF).</DIV>
<DIV>BAF was started in 1985 to address budget cuts then. We have</DIV>
<DIV>been actively raising funds ever since. We may need to raise
more</DIV>
<DIV>next year.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We have several dedicated BAF volunteers that will be retiring this</DIV>
<DIV>year, way beyond their last child's graduation from BHS. If you are </DIV>
<DIV>interested in ramping up your volunteer efforts beyond</DIV>
<DIV>helping with a specific team, we would welcome your help. If</DIV>
<DIV>you cannot come to the meeting, send an email or call me and</DIV>
<DIV>we'll start from there.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Meeting: Monday, April 9th, 7:15 p.m.</DIV>
