Skateboard Discussion:

Maggie gave a status report last opportunity to meet was when we asked city for approval to bid on equipment.  Hockey location fell through Notified by Hockey group next to rink would not work unless concrete slab was poured.  Hockey has a lease for 99 years to have the rink on school property.

Maggie still has a passion ridiculous we dont provide this for our kids.

Convinced school board members to put it on school property. Maggie met with Mary, Steve and Myron and got a NO! feeling.  Laura feels it makes good sense to have it there.  It could be a short-term site until community center is complete.

Mobilize kids and the money they earned.  What message does that send?  Getting kids focused.

Communication Plan

Maggie will put together a survey to be done one week between now and the Holiday break.  Have the kids answer the survey during Home Room.

• How big a pass time is this? How many kids skateboard?

• Do you skateboard?

• Do you own a skateboard?

• Where do you skateboard?

• What grade are you in______

These were some suggested questions.  The survey will be important for our visioning.

January meeting Step 2. Whats next after survey?
