The group went over all of the events that are on the calendar.

 

Jocelyne updated the group as to the progress with the alumni social in May.  We will have swag for give-a-ways and to sell, online ways to donate and sign-in to the event, information about ways alumni can help at Parker.

Brian updated the group as to what is going on with the sidewalk project.

 

Katrina gave a brief update on the October Fun Run and that we need a lot more volunteers to make this event happen.
