2016 Activity Report
Chair, PSAC Regina Area Council
 
 
• Since the last AGM, Area Council held meetings June 7, August 30 and September 28, November 1 and November 29, 2016.  There was also a meeting on January 31, 2017.
• Following the June 7 meeting I prepared and submitted a proposal for funding to again host a booth at the upcoming Labour Day picnic.  The proposal received approval by the REVP.
• Unfortunately due to inclement weather the Labour Day picnic in Wascana Park did not proceed and the 44 boxes of fruit snacks chews purchased from Costco for distribution had to be returned.  There was considerable confusion around obtaining confirmation on the status of the picnic; hopefully a communication plan will be incorporated into planning for the 2017 picnic.
