Catherine said that the RCC allotment <br />from the State has now been credited to our account. It had been in some other Town <br />account since January, and she will try to have the appropriate interest credited. Old funds <br />dating back to 2010 and 2011 will be transferred to the current year for accounting <br />purposes. <br />Nancy Snow presented the results from the Community Survey which reflect a more <br />positive image of the Cultural Council than existed three years ago. Congratulations to <br />Nancy for a job well done. <br />Our discussion of the survey prompted several possible action items: <br />1. Announce RCC funded programs on the Town website <br />2. List grantees and the dates of their projects in the Community Connection (town) <br />3. Place a "save the date" notice about the grant applications in Community Connection <br />(Colleen) <br />4. Ask supported groups to "like" RCC on Facebook <br />5. Contact The Patch and ask them to "like" RCC on Facebook (Catherine) <br />6. Announce /advertise the upcoming grant process to organizations and PTO's <br />7. Invite potential members to attend a Council meeting <br />We will discuss how to proceed with these items at our next meeting. <br />
