Revenue Changes
We looked at several of our line items from last year that didn't make their total projected numbers and adjusted accordingly: Flower Sales, Restaurant Night, Celebration of Clovers, Kroger's Rewards, Membership Drive.
We have lost the following items as revenue: Holiday Shop, Amazon Smiles, We will be leaving Amazon Smiles listed as there may be one more deposit that we have not received yet.
Added to Revenue: Family Game Night, Columbus Blue Jacket Ticket Sales, and split School Store & School Supply into 2-line items.
