9.) Other:

Mileage - Clay can submit his mileage bills to Lyla and will be reinbursed at the current mileage rate.

Gym Bleachers - Darren expressed concern over the new (used) gym bleachers that arrived over the summer. The SCC members went to the gym to look at them. They are very poorly made (nails sticking out) and can tip over very easily in the upright position. Over the summer one of our bleachers was removed and was replaced with 2 of these used bleachers. The SCC would prefer to keep the old bleachers than have them be replaced with poor quality ones. We set up the bleachers in the proper position.
