An attempt to amend Article 7 -- To see if the voters of the Town of Fairfax will authorize the sum of $800.00 to offset operating expenses for Fairfax Success By Six -- to make it $900 was questioned as to whether the money amount could be changed. While the moderator was looking up the legality of the motion, Pete Fitzgerald was given a hat which he passed around in an attempt to raise the $100 to the delight of the voters present.

Patricia Hendee, Co-Liason and Paula Dearborn, Co-Liason were indeed grateful and actually when they counted the money in the hat found that they had $137.25, plus a $10 IOU
