Meeting Notes
Present: Ron Bonneau, Patrick Precht, Bianca Stevenson, Angie Point, Oster Hernandez, and
Kaylee Farrell.
Meeting began at 10:00 am. Minutes from July 13,2021 were reviewed.
lnitial discussion centered around the cancellation of the Youth Forum event scheduled for the next
week (9115t2021) at the Caldwell Train Depot. The upsurge in community COVID case counts
over the past few weeks with no indication that it has yet peaked made the decision necessary and
prudent.
Ron has spoken with the College of ldaho regarding the possibility of holding an indoor event at
the College in early January, possibly January 12,2022. COVID precautions and community case
counts during the previous weeks will determine if the college will allow visitors al that time. The
college has stated they expect to be able to make a determination in early December.
Proposed activities and scheduling are expected to remain the same as that proposed for
September's cancelled event, including a new "ln Their Shoes" activity led by Kaylee Farrell.
Lunch would likely be at Simplot Dining Hall.
Review of budget items show an adequate number of t-shirts on hand to accommodate approx.-
imately 50-60 students and staff for a smaller event. Sufficient funding remains in the account to
cover meals, audio-visual support, and contracted facilitators from the YMCA.
The meeting was adjourned at 10:30am. The next meeting will be on Tuesday, November 9,2021
at 10:00 am at Vallivue High School pending availability (1407 E. Homedale Rd.). ZOOM format
and/or alternate meeting venue will be provided if needed.
