If you would like to join us, please let me know (contact info below) so we can determine how big a table we may need. It’s a long story about setting the meeting agenda and coordinating people’s schedules. Our CAC board discussed various options, from our typical agenda about city-related topics to just a social event. We decided to move one of our main agenda items to our January meeting.

By having dinner at the PR we won’t have to work on the logistics of providing food and drinks, plus setting up and cleaning up at Powell Drive. Also we won’t be taking up the parks staff time of accommodating a small crowd. We appreciate having the opportunity to use our City Park facilities, and plan on doing so in the […]
