Thanks to gunnar, Nick, Andrew and Chip for completing the Doodle pole and to Butch for responding that he couldn't meet at any of the time options.  

Tomorrow, Thu 8-10 is a time all respondents are available but I didn't schedule the meeting because I was waiting for more responses. The next time all respondents are available is next Wed. Apr. 27, 8-10 am. so let's target then to meet.  I reserved the Training Room in the Public Safety Center.   

I'm sorry next Wed is the day after Ryan's tonsillectomy because he usually has such great ideas.

Subject: Education Budget

Bicycle Board Members,
Any grant money that we don't spend by Sep. 4, 2011 will be lost.
Currently, we do not have a plan for approximately $9,500.  What are your
ideas for spending this money on bicycling education?  Remember, the money
must be spent and the work completed by Sep. 4.  Also, if you have an idea,
would you be willing to manage it to completion?  If not you, then who?
Here are some ideas that the Education Committee identified:

Put together some graphics that can be used for future marketing, education,
signs, banners for the bridges, tables, Bike Month.
Make a video.
Make a video of the CCC course.
Make a video of cycling for kids in Motown with Positive Spin or other stuff
that will have both state level appeal and local benefits.  (A 7 minute film
could be useful to the CVB, bike sales, or primers for getting kids
interested in taking bike ed at schools or elsewhere.)
Make a Motown DVD on learning how to ride a bike and have the local bike
shops give one to every person that buys a bike in Motown.
Buy 1,000 copies of Street Smarts and have the local bike shops give one to
every person that buys a bike in Motown.

If one of these appeals to you, would you be willing to manage it to
fruition?
FYI, following are the objects or events that we already have planned:

Ads in the Dominion Post and Daily Athenaeum now through Sep. 4.
Our 7 TV spots run on Comcast now through Sep. 4.
Two InSite billboards (Star City Bridge & outbound Mileground) now through
Sep. 4.
Three Lamar billboards (119 inbound from South, Mileground inbound and
Mileground outbound) now through Sep. 4.
Eight foot banner identical to billboard to be used at May 9 WVU Employee
Fest and any other event.
New bumper sticker.
Continue website development.
Continue delivering CCC TS101 and Commuter classes.

Your earliest reply could help us not lose this money.
