Currently there are 45'children participating and transportation:is provided. This program ends in late April: Fire Department Projects— Ray Hubbard - He typically offers fire safety workshops to children from pre- K through elementary school Each child receives a family information packet and encouraged to share their new knowledge- Stop, Drop and Roll. He also does Halloween safety and hands out candy at the Department on Halloween night. There is an opportunity for teens to join a Jr. Firefighters,program —currently there is such a program (unadvertised)there is only one member. Having the Fire Department participate in local activities/programs would be positive for everyone.

This will be an ongoing project with the idea that offering local programs may encourage—more—pa`rticipation.- ---- —- Camp_Vera reported that she has received the camp registration paper work; she and Karen met to discuss budget and program changes. She believes that the after care program would benefit by hiring a "fresh" adult leader who would work 5 days with the younger children (k-3rd)while Beth and Reid would share the supervision of the older youth. Jr. Counselors would work in rotation in the afternoon. Beth will be working with the ass, is certified to be First Aid/Emergency responder for field trips, and will work with older youth. She is also planning field trips and events that will likely include fire safety, trip to Fire Department and a'Bike Rodeo. Staff for the summer camp is always a concern. Carolyn suggested that she explore IC and Cornell students as camp may be a possible match for work study. Michelle suggested calling Joey Steingarten, IYS, and drama person for possible connects with drama staff. Vera will do. Old Business T A brief discussion about the Basketball wrap up meeting:at the:IYB. There is some confusion about the lnsurance'about who pays for this. Carol will call Liz Vance to clarify. If not ECC we can drop this expense from our winter insurance coverage. There does need to be a system in place to collect the Adult waver forms which the ECC needs for documentation-our insurance covers this program.
