<br />It was reported that not all of the schools pass the packets on to the teachers <br />and it’s suggested that the members give packets to teachers they know who <br />are interested. <br /> <br />Elena requested a packet; Lee will e-mail the packets to the committee <br />members. <br /> <br />Farrah-Marie requested extra 2013 booklets to present to teachers who have <br />never entered before so they can see the end product. She will pick up from <br />Lee. <br /> <br />D. Community Reports <br /> 1. Networking <br />Farrah-Marie will be meeting with Marci Goldman-Manker from the Girls <br />Scouts on November 21 at 10:00 a.m. at the Waimea Starbucks. If anyone is <br />interested in joining in the discussion, they are more than welcome. The <br />discussion is to learn more about the Girls Scouts, what the organization is <br />doing on Hawai‘i Island. They are listed in the Hawaii Island United Way <br />packet and the specific program that the donation goes to is a Girl Scout <br />Leadership Development Program, which is very fascinating for young girls to <br />have that opportunity to participate in the leadership development program. <br />Farrah-Marie is requesting specific information about that program and to find <br />out how we can help collaborate or to be able to connect her with other <br />organizations in the community for mutual benefit. <br /> <br />Elena suggested we tap into those girls doing Gold Awards (equivalent of the <br />Boy Scouts Eagle Award) to advertise it. This is a way to promote CSW. <br /> <br />Farrah-Marie reported that the Hawaii Island Chamber of Commerce is looking <br />for nominations for the 2013 Athena Award for East Hawaii Business Woman <br />of the Year. It is a very competitive process. Nominations are due the end of <br />this month. Farrah-Marie will e-mail the application to Lee. <br /> <br />In regards to networking, Margaret reported that we are not pursuing Facebook <br />and Website. The County needs to sign a contract and a county employee <br />would need to monitor the Facebook/Website. We don’t have the manpower <br />and resources to do it at the county level as this time. <br /> <br />UNFINISHED BUSINESS <br />A. Project Ideas <br /> No report. <br /> <br />OLD BUSINESS <br />A.
