        <FormAndLineReferenceDesc>Item B - Amended Return</FormAndLineReferenceDesc>
        <ExplanationTxt>The initial return was prepared using the interview-based filing method of TAX990. Due to my lack of familiarity with the 990-EZ Form several errors were made that require correction. After reviewing the instructions for the 990-EZ and associated schedules I am confident that my adjustments are accurate and necessary. In Item H Schedule B Form 990 the checkbox indicating that our organization is not obligated to include Schedule B was marked. However as our organization did receive contributions designated solely for charitable purposes I now understand that attaching Schedule B is mandatory. Regarding Item L Gross receipts a recalculation was necessary to include noncash donations not initially accounted for specifically $6,900 for the raffles held during the Annual Golf Scramble for Charity and to reclassify some gross income $2,085 as gaming revenue from the golf raffles rather than fundraising revenue. The golf raffles and the golf scramble income and expenses were previously consolidated into a single event. In Part I line 1 Contributions were adjusted to include noncash donations not previously recorded amounting to $6,900 for the raffles held during the Annual Golf Scramble for Charity and to reclassify some gross income $2,085 as gaming revenue from the golf raffles rather than fundraising revenue. In Part I line 6a Gross income from the golf raffles was added. In Part I line 6b the income and expenses from Parish breakfast fundraisers which were omitted from Schedule G were included elsewhere in the 990-EZ leading to modifications in the contributions from fundraising events in the parentheses of line 6b and adjustments in gross income. In Part I line 9 Total revenue was recalculated to accommodate the aforementioned changes. In Part I line 10 the sum of grants and similar payments was revised to rectify misclassifications of certain amounts as other expenses which were in fact charitable gifts aligning with our mission. Additionally a transcription error resulted in an incorrect amount for one gift. In Part I line 16 Other expenses were updated to accurately reflect the councils actual expenses. Subsequently in Part I line 17 Total expenses were recalculated. In Part I line 18 Excess or deficit was adjusted. Lastly in Part I line 21 Net assets or fund balances were recalculated to accommodate the aforementioned modifications.</ExplanationTxt>
