MINUTES OF THE CORSICA AREA COMMUNITY FOUNDATION (CAF)

JULY, 2002

A meeting of the Corsica Area Community Foundation was held at Cheryl’s Place on Thursday, July 11, 2002.

Those present were Roger Bordewyk, Cheryl Van Zee, Dick Bordewyk, Gary Van Roekel, Mark Spitzenberger, and Vern DeGeest.

The CAF meeting was called to order by President Roger Bordewyk.

Minutes of the previous meeting were distributed, read, and approved.

It was reported that the “goal thermometer” sign has been completed, and will be installed at the vacant lot adjacent to the Community Building on main street this weekend.

President Bordewyk reported that the DISTRIBUTION LETTER was received, and $77.00 is available for distribution. Suggested that an ad might be placed in the local newspaper or notice given on the “foundation web page”. The notice would inform the application process and eligible recipients.

There will be a noon meeting on July 25^th with a group from Sioux Falls, other are “foundations”, and the local CAF. The President has agreed to make the appropriate contacts and invite the general public.

The members in attendance revisited the letter received earlier from Joy Blom. It was again suggested that a meeting in the very near future should be called with a focus on attempting to coordinate the “efforts”. It was agreed that the need to “work-together” for the “common causes” is extremely important.

Meeting adjourned at 7:45 am.
