She has contacted the current owner but has not gotten a response back. She will continue to pursue this matter. 3.Revised logo design Chair Bisel. Chair Bisel reported that he hasnt heard back from Rose Foggia on the proposed design change to the aloha shirt. After discussion, it was moved by J. Anderson and seconded by S.
