option.
Golden Valley Arts and Music Festival: The annual event will be held on Saturday, September 26. The GVHSF will share
the booth with Park and Recreation. Members were encouraged to man the booth, along with city staff, between the
hours of 10 am -3 pm.
Solicitation Letter: Fackler has talked with Communications about the 2015-2016 letter. GVHSF members discussed a
theme for the letter. It was decided that "crisis management" would be the theme and highlight suicide prevention,
runaways, families in crisis, etc. Fackler will ask funded agencies to assist with the letter by sending in a quote about the
services the GVHSF funds. The goal is to have the letter In the mail by mid-November.
Disc Golf Tournament: Wold contacted "Gotta Go Gotta Throw" for information on running the event. It was decided to
table the event until 2016.
Applications for Funding: Members discussed the applications and felt all agencies are worthy of funding. Three
agencies will be invited to meet with the GVHSF members at the October 12 meeting. Fackler will send invitations to
Tree House, Crisis Nursery and PRISM.
Discussion followed on how do residents know about the agencies we fund and how can they contact the agencies for
services? It was suggested to add the contact phone numbers for the agencies to the website and all publicity. Fackler
will meet with Communications.
Wold announced the next meeting will be held on Monday, October 12 and will start at 6 pm with dinner. A short
meeting will be held and agencies will present at 6:30 pm, 6:50 pm and 7:10 pm.
