Reflections: What inspired you about the regional conversation in King City? Melissa was amazed at the work that has been done as the tri-fold of the second story. Catharine impressed with the King City meeting. Fr. Daniel remarked about Anna Cook’s offer to help with input even at a later date. Fr. Joel felt good about the whole meeting. Enjoyed the networking. Hope liked the idea of them promoting us and we will promote them. Mary Lee was impressed with the invitation that one or two of our group join the Northwest Tourism board.
Hope reported that Jared Lane visited the Frost boys in CA and shared information about his experience.
*Need to exchange flyer information with King City. We need to find out when they have events to that we can support them. Example—Living History Day.
Group reviewed the notes from the last meeting and looked at results of the six areas of the readiness survey for Phase 3.
Also discussed was who is willing and qualified to act as co conveners? Fr. Benedict noted the lack of men on the Steering Committee. It was also noted a lack of turnover with the group.
