5.      5013C

Capt. Alexander said we need volunteers for a committee to work on the 5013C for the Coalition.  Don said that Danette Krumel said that she would look in to it.  Danette was not present at this meeting.

 

       6.  OTHER BUSINESS

Denise Manassa said that updates are currently being done to the Coalition brochure.  The committee reviewed copies and a few changes were made.  A big concern on the brochure is the FYSAS stats.  A more generic version was suggested that doesn’t require a date so the brochures won’t need to be updated so often.  Danny Childs asked Denise to email the revised copy to him in Publisher and he can it back to her as a PDF file to email to the committee for final review.

 

Denise will bring inserts to the next meeting for Coalition members to distribute as needed.  CDAC still have several boxes left over.

 

Lisa Viquelia reminded the committee that the next newsletter is due to go out in December.  The committee was asked to email any information to Lisa by December 15th.  If committee members don’t submit information there may not be a newsletter.  The newsletter needs to consist of committee input to continue.  Don Jernigan suggested to Lisa that she email Linda Moultrie for membership information for the newsletter.
