PAC meeting January 5, 2011

Minutes

Attendees Sharon Bartlett, Kelly Brown, Manu Erickson, Annette
Gagliardi, Khadiga Mohamed, Billi White, and Celine Woods

Treasurer’s report: delivered by Annette: balance is $ 211.54 plus
our $300 reserve, after projected expenses for this school year.

LAC report: Delivered by Annette: salient information is that the
School Fair is January 8, 2011 and East PAC now has a website. There
was discussion of a social for all PACs city wide, and a member of LAC
should be contacting each PAC. Manu suggested that a wellness event
would be a good idea for such a social. There was a reminder that the
Children’s Museum will be open to ECFE parents and children on
Thursday January 13, free.

Lending Libraries: Date is currently being reviewed for a possible
Monday session or two. The childcare room would be open then and
Kelly would keep the children in that room while adults organized and
recorded the books.

Events Updates

Disco Ball, February 5, 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. Manu is still coordinating
with Lisa Bromwell about the lights and Brian about the music. Lisa
will need help and Manu will find out what kind of help, and offer
help as needed. Sophie is donating the snacks. We will need to
purchase some juice boxes. Manu will ask Laura to contact possible
donors (need to contact donors on PAC letterhead describing the
event—Laura did this last year).

Couples night out, Wednesday, January 19, 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. Billi
contacted Elsies and found out we could not use the bowling alleys.
Kelly is checking to see if we could use Good Sports at 2nd and
Broadway. If not we will stick with Elsies and use the dining area
only.

Communications:

Celine presented the newsletter. We talked about the BLOG and the
website, and all information should be posted in those places.
