- Attendees: Mike Boulland, Ronald Horii, Rick Leonard, Mario Blaum,
Bruce Pickett, Hazen Anderson, Don Schwartzrock, Jim Kern
- Mike was having E-mail problems and couldn't get the meeting notice
out.
- Hazen brought two of his neighbors from the Uvas area, Don and Jim.
They were interested in starting a neighborhood action group for the Uvas
Canyon area, which is near Uvas Canyon County Park. We talked about our group,
neighborhood groups in general, 5013c requirements, and starting a park volunteer
group for Uvas Canyon Park.
- 5013c can be done if the organization is historically-related and
is serving the greater community. UNSCC will be holding the 5013c for us.
If you do a 5013c, you need to pay for an accounting.
