Need to correlate program offerings with educational outcome standards (Stacy Dahlstrom). ® Jake Jacobson explained that in the future, each meeting of the Planning Committee will usually feature a single topic to be investigated (such as programs for school groups, mentioned above). Each meeting will have ample opportunity for questions, facilitated brainstorming, and "challenges" to the committee members. [The following are ideas for topics?] o Monte Johnson commented on the need to review the resources and capabilities of HANC before going forward with the planning process o James McNeal asked to see the "big picture," "big goals" before taking a look at smaller issues. ,Tan Kurhajetz suggested that thinking about resources/capabilities first could be limiting the imagination — think big. o Sarah Lenz wondered about the sustainability, both fiscal and environmental, of HANC o Dorothy LaBrash stated the need to understand the "competition" (other Mature centers) and also how to court corporate sponsors. Homework: o Review the Imagine Roseville 2025 final report with an eye towards application to HANC o Make a list of goals we'd each like to see happen at HANC Meeting frequency to be about once a month, third Thursday of the month until further notice. Next meeting on Thursday, May 17, 2007, 6:30 — 8:30 pin. at HANC.
