Outreach Committee - May 2005

Outreach Event on Alki
The 43rd Clean & Green event on Alki this morning was a big success with over 90 volunteers, making it the largest of it's kind. Lara-Anne, Richard Bartlett, and I spent the morning picking up cigarette butts and the occasional cup and talking with many people. Some of the highlights were speaking with Mayor Nickels, Natasha from the Alki Community Council, Adam, who is working to fund the replacement of the Statue of Liberty, and Ron Harris who is managing the Clean & Green program for the Mayor. Jackie Dupras' palm cards were a great idea and we handed out many of them and the membership forms. The shirts provided great exposure for us and the Mayor even recognized that we were at White Center as well. Congratulations to everyone for a great day in the 34th!

Outreach Committee Report - May 2005

General Discussion: Lara-Anne gave an update on the T-shirts. They will be ready during the meeting. This is very exciting since now people will know who we are when we are out and about this summer. The shirts are for sale. Please let Sarah or Lara-Anne know if you want one.

We need more PCO?s to be appointed on Wednesday so that they can participate in the nominating process later in the year.

White Center clean-up and Alki this weekend.

Bowling on June 4th. Details to be announced later.

Update on Project #1
Engage the PCO?s to contact people in their precincts by walking, holding a house party, hosting a block party, or some other event. It was decided that we will create a packet on one subject only. It was the consensus of the group that this should be social security. We will present this to board for approval at the next E-board meeting. Steve will start creating the list of PCO?s to contact. He has found about 8 people to help. Hopefully, if we divided the PCO?s up, we can provide support on an on-going basis over the next few years.

Update on Project #2
Communicty Activities-Tanya presented a list. There are still some openings for people to take lead. Lara-Anne and Ivan offered to sell these open positions to the body on Wednesday to see if we can get the slots filled.

Update on Proejct #3
Community Organizations-Tim is still in the process of compiling a list, but it is clear we need more help from people who can be the primary contact. We will add this to the list that Lara-Anne and Ivan will present. We added on project to this committee. It involves reaching out to more isolated people who may be interested in writing letters. Mary will work with our new friend Sam and take lead on this project.
