Meeting Highlights: November 9

  • Volunteers are busy researching the best way for our group to incorporate so we can collect funds as a tax-exempt entity. Stay tuned. We are making progress!
  • Our event committee plans to throw a grand kick-off party in the next year or so. Plans are under way to choose a date and plan this gala event. We would appreciate any contacts you may have in the event-planning and fundraising world.
  • Communicating our mission to the rest of the community is an important aspect of our group. In addition to this website, you can now find us on Twitter (@PerformAtEC). Soon, our student representatives will announce our Facebook page. Additional communication plans include painting a mural on the west side of the band room (facing Eastern) announcing a future PAC on the El Camino campus (pending district approval).
  • We are meeting with architects and hope to have conceptual drawings in the not-too-distant future.
  • Our Design/Construction Committee met with an architect who will send survey of 25-30 questions to other schools whose PACs they designed for input on likes/dislikes of design.
 Next Meeting: Monday, December 14 at 7:00 pm in the El Camino Band Room
All are welcome!
