st
were approved. Bailey
Vandegrift motioned and Claire Janes approved.
2.Katie Sofranko gave an update of the member contact information, distributing phone numbers

-Becoming more organized
-Advertising better with and without new technologies
-Service projects involved with the schools and government
-GYAB camping trip
4.Parker Tadlock was absent but represented for the possible action to push future meeting times
back. It was a majority vote to move it to 5:45 on still the first and fifth Mondays .
5.Tyler Willrich brought up the possibility of creating a GYAB monthly newsletter and Facebook
page. The item was made for an agenda item in the next meeting.
6.Tyler Willrich talked about the possibility of creating a Public Affairs officer, maybe even split up
into 2 roles. This was also pushed back to a future meetings’ agenda item.
7.Tyler Willrich brought up the possibility of developing GYAB’s own service projects. Many ideas
and plans were made. Someone needed to call Heather B for information on a tree planting
day. For April, plans were made to have a float in the Red Poppy Parade and give out
information there. April 30
th
was the set date to have a park cleanup. Ideas for future events
such as in May were to have a blood drive sponsored by GYAB at the rec center and/or having a
May Spring Cleaning themed garage sale.
8.Tyler Willrich brought up the possibility of developing bi-monthly safety programs for teenagers
and young adults. The organization would need to get involved with the police and it was
decided to wait until the next school year since it was almost summer.
9.Tyler Willrich brought up the idea to become closer to the Mayor like other advisories had at
the YAC and it was moved to the next meeting.
