COMMISSIONER COMMENTS
Bill said the first meeting in October should be for the market re-cap and the
vendors should be contacted, The second meeting in Oct, will be for the
2004 program.
Andrew said we should hand out a pamphlet inviting the vendors to the
meeting.
Shea Singer said people can't figure out why there isn't enough produce.
Charles said he had people fill out the survey. One of the main concerns is
that people weren't aware of the demonstrations. This needs addressed for
next year.
Market funds:
Charles said he sensed that Hanna Pevny, ACRA director truly believes that
one person couldn't focus as the market coordinator unless they are familiar
with the rest of the ACRA department and supervised by her.
Andrew said special events is a two step process: Putting on the event
which is the production of the event and secondly the person on the other
side that generates the money. The ACRA feels it is overlapped.
Bill said the ACRA looks at our interference as a problem.
John said we need to be clearer in our mind what we need to present at the
marketing meenng.
Andrew said whoever is in charge of marketing should have four
categories: PR, internet, special events, advertising.
