1. The next Advisory Committee meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 16th from 6:00 to 7:30P.M. The location is not yet determined, but the committee came up with a few suggestions which are being looked into. (We will try to make sure that every meeting location either is street level or has an elevator.) Thursday seems to be a difficult day for people, so the committee decided to try the 3rd Wednesday of the month.
ADDENDUM: The Next Meeting of the No Place for Hate Advisory Committee will be held on Wed. May 16th from 6:00P.M. to 7:30P.M. at Three Pyramids, 66 Day Street.
2. In place of holding a pot luck dinner, the advisory committee decided to join an existing citywide event taking place on Saturday, June 9th from 12:30P.M. to 5:00P.M. The event is called "Family Day-Health Fair". It is held each year and sponsored by several agencies. It is an outdoor event on Day Street. The street will be blocked off for this afternoon function. The NPFH Committee can set up its own table, offer ethnic food to the public, and distribute information about the NPFH program. There will be more information to follow about this event.
(The committee thought it was best to join and collaborate with existing entities doing similar work.)
3. Fitchburg Civic Days are held from July 1 through July 4. The NPFH Committee has a booth reserved on July 1 from 5:00P.M. to 11P.M. at the International Food Court, which is held on Main Street. The committee can do a food booth or an information booth. For items 2 and 3, perhaps the committee could have members pair up and serve at a booth for a 1 or 2 hour period of time, depending upon the number of members available on those days.
