5) Discuss/Take Action on District Auditor
Description:
Once again we have sent requests to a few different Auditors to see if they would be interested in adding us to their workload and once again they stated they are full but if something changed they would notify us.  With that said we would like to stay with Moore,Caver Inc.  Possible motion:  I move the board approve to use Moore, Caver as district auditors."  A second is required.
