Events Task Force Meeting Minutes
Present: Steve Sandberg, Greg Garman, Anne Tiller, Jennifer Gahnstrom, Mary Parker
Old Business: We talked about the past event, Socaholix Dance. Steve thinks about 100 people attended. It cost about $800 ($600 for the band and $200 for the sound tech). After the take at the door and the contributions from Steve and Mary Laurel, Walker broke even. Excellent PR event! This event is categorized in finances under “Programming”, not fundraising, because this event is “outreach”.
New Business:
Advertising for Alondra Cano and Deanna Standing Cloud is complete.
Jennifer made flyers and handouts for Immigration Vigil on Oct 17. Mary will announce in church on the 12th and pass out flyers. The wording on this handout is not to be changed.
Day of the Dead Costume Dance: “El Cachorro” will play. We guarantee them $400, plus half of the execss we take at the door. Mary pledges $200 toward this expense. $10 donation, no one turned away. 7:30 – 10:30 PM. Child friendly. Refreshments: popcorn. Mary will bring a Day of Dead sheet cake for 100. We will ask people to bring left over Halloween candy. Anne will purchase La Croix sparkling water in cans which we can sell. Mary is creating posters for this event. Deb R. will put info out on Facebook. Flyers are being made to distribute in neighborhood. These will include information on
- Rummage sale
- Dia de los Muertos Costume Dance
- Fireroast Mt. Boys concert
- Community Meals
Mary will contact Southside Family School to see if we can get a speaker on Civil Rights for our Jan. 18 Celebration Service.
