August. Because of health issues she is going to take a step back from being there in
person. She will still deal with the Extra Food phone calls.
Jill Boland will take over working with the volunteers. It’s hard work. They have to
be able to lift 35 to 40 lb boxes and do a lot of cleaning.
Marin Valley Pride Day: Kathryn McMudie We have had tremendous help from
people in the Park, including monetary contributions. Lee Pochapin did a wonderful
job figuring out how to raise the Progressive Pride flag and there was a good crowd
there to watch. David Gray, John Feld, and others will be taking pictures of the
parade. MVEST is providing reflective vests, stop signs, a bullhorn, and traffic cones
for parade route safety. Traffic will be directed to detour around the parade. Mar Val
is donating tablecloths and dry cleaning for them. Brad Witherspoon is
decorating the Ballroom. Tom Weeden will play the bagpipes as the parade goes by
his house.
Newcomers Group: John Feld The Newcomers Group will be in addition to the
Welcome Wagon that Mar Val sponsors. We want to help newcomers learn about
the different groups and events in the Park. Also where grocery stores and other
services are located. Tara has written down the names of volunteers who are
interested in helping. We will get together in July to start making plans.
Meeting adjourned at 7:17 pm.
