Easter Egg Hunt

Stephanie got three boxes of Easter Eggs. Brandee will try to find one or two more when she goes to Dodge. We asked the church for prize donations. Rachel will also look at Dollar Tree for prizes. We can spend about $100-$150 on prizes.

We will have James or the city block off the streets around the park so we don't have to worry about kids running into the street.

We discussed the use of the MAM food pantry. We're giving away about 100 cans of food per week, which reflects the need in our community. Eventually, we would like to empower those we are helping in other ways. We talked about the possibility of a series of guest speakers. For example, we could invite a doctor to speak about immunizations and child health; a dentist to speak about dental health; someone from the bank to speak about financial management; someone to speak about parenting. It would be important to invite Spanish speakers.

  1. The key, as indicated, is finding personnel who can communicate and letting the Hispanic community know what and when. What avenues of communication does the Hispanic community utilize most frequently? I don't know.
