January 21, 2008 meeting
Dear Partnership for Floyd Members and interested potential members,
This is an outline of projected work for the Partnership for Floyd in the coming year. If I this sounds interesting to you and / or you have the time please join us. Our next meeting will be January 21st at 6:00pm at the Hotel Floyd Conference Room in the Village Green.
This meeting will include a vote for new Board Members. If you are not currently serving in a leadership capacity, but would be interested in this opportunity- please let us know.
This is a summary of topics on our current list for discussion- however, we are also open to hearing from all of you on topics you feel are important for this organization to address. ·
---Antique Show and Appraisals (February meeting focus) – our primary fundraising event – Event date – March 9th 11:00-4:00 Floyd County High School- (Nanette is organizing the event- appraisers and vendors, and securing the location, Kamala Is working on the publicity) homemade soups and breads to be served (Mark is organizing the food- volunteers to make homemade soup will be needed). Help in all areas is most welcome. ·
-- Earth day event April 19th at the Floyd County High School. The primary focus of this event is to provide information to Floyd citizens on environmental issues that are important to our area- such as water/ landfill, a speaker has been lined up from the state water control board, there are local people who have been or will be invited to speak as well (Fred First) one idea under consideration is the Partnership sponsoring a "science fair" for the students with prize money attached to increase student involvement and encourage their parents to come out on the day to see their student's project. Billy Weitzenfeld's group is interested in working with the Partnership on this project. A committee has been formed to work on this event- contact Jack Wall (chair of the committee) for more information. 392-4381 · ---Lineberry Memorial Park- Partnership to sponsor another planning event sometime in May?/ June ? – as directed by the Town of Floyd. Partnership members are also available to talk with community groups about the Lineberry Memorial Park and the need to raise funds to support finishing touches to the park. Raffle will begin in March and drawing will be held at this event with all funds going to the park. ·
-- The restoration of the Old Jacksonville Cemetery was actually the primary reason the Partnership for Floyd was formed. This has been proven to be a very difficult area to be effective in. The TEA 21 grant has been slow to be implemented (mostly because of VDOT rules). However, I would like to keep this as a topic of discussion, and for the Partnership to be available to help with this project as we can. We did write a grant for this purpose that was denied last October from the Roanoke Community Foundation. I think there may be other opportunities for grants, however, and we may get a "yes" next time. · Working with other civic organizations for continued work on the beautification of the Downtown Floyd area, from the Floyd County Woman's Club, to the Rotary and the Chamber of Commerce (and any other interested group).
Thanks! Kamala BauersChairperson, Partnership for Floyd(540) 392-4382
