Update for SHRA meeting

I thought I would follow through on Tom's good idea to email discussion points about committee updates ahead of time.

For the SHCG:
1. Captain planet grant in to help make garden children fun and friendly with art and educational materials.
2. Fiskars grant and Aveeno grant did not award funding
3. Looking forward to healthy sprouts and Scotts grant submissions in October.
4. Waiting again to hear back from city, will write an email to remind them.
5. Currently a letter is being written to create community partnerships
6. Is it important to make it clear that no funding for the garden comes from SHRA?
7. Over 80 posts on blog.
8. Happy to see blog linked on SHRA website.
9. Would like to tell NWCA about garden, but think we should wait for more information from City--Tom says their annual meeting is coming up, first Wednesday of the month at Meadow Park (Jennifer Adair, president, dad lives here).
10. Macy's April fundraiser a possibility, but for next year.
11. Will have garden meeting for whole community once we hear back from the city.
12. Would like to break ground in May 2009!
