What will be the goals/objectives of the activities and programs offered to students? 3.) When and where will the activities take place? 4.) What will be the format of the activities? 5.) Who will staff and supervise the activities? and 6.) How will the impact of the activities be measured and evaluated? Currently on the committee are: Jay Marino, Sue Reading, Bruce Bufe, Jan Taylor, Kay Ingham, Rick Loy and Scott McKissick. We welcome anyone else who would like to be part of this planning committee.
