Meeting started at 1:30PM at Jose's House in Riverside, CA

Members present: Carla Romo, Mario Fuentes, Al Hollinger, Jose Mendez, Vidal Barragan, & Alejandra Mendez.

Meeting started with a brief overview of last meeting minutes.

All board members filled a member profile sheet for the Beyond Limits website, this included a phone number, email, member since. This information will be posted under "meet the board members" in the website for easier communication between each other.

Mario stated that Jennifer from the Lions Club will be arranging for some students to attend the summer excursion. Vidal brought to our attention that Herman & Alice brought up the "Parent Consent Form" and it was decided that a modification was needed in order to obtain more information on the student's health history and a disclaimer will also be added.

Vidal will be recruiting students from the Riverside area.

Two vans 15-passenger vans will be needed for the summer trip - Jose will follow up with local car rental places to reserve the vans.

It was also decided that the trip to Arizona will is tentative for July 21 to  July 31. The trip will be straight to Lukachukai and we will be leaving at approximately 4AM.  In order to achieve departure time, we will all camp out the night before with all luggage and materials loaded.

At the next meeting, we will plan the workshops and have a more structured plan for our stay in Arizona. Workshops may include, weaving, silvermaking, sweat, building a teepee, drums, gender circle, etc.

This year Beyond Limits will collect a $50 deposit from all students that will go on the trip and will be refunded during the trip. The reason for this is to avoid last minute cancellations.

It has been requested to go to your local supermaket and ask for food donations (non-perishable items) for the trip.

Meeting ended at 3:45PM

 

NEXT MEETING WILL BE AT AL'S PLACE IN PALM DESERT, WHEN HERMAN AND ALICE COME.
