minutes from the January meeting

Minutes of 2009 OIC Summer Camp
January 11, 2009
1) Basic information is as above.

2) Adjusted /discounted Price from the camp:
Adult: $150 (was $191) Child (6-12): $105 (was $150) Child (under 5): Free
We will start from $165 as a flat fee regardless of age.

3) Estimated summer camp occupancy: 400 people max.

4) Advertise to parents since there’s extra space: parents may come too, but it would be better for the kids to be with other kids in the cabins.

5) We have to send $4,218.75 by February 20, 2009.

6) Age limit: Grades range from 2nd to 6th to be in the fall (meaning 1st -5th before summer vacation)

· New vision: 70
· San Jose Korean Presbyterian Church: 20
· Emmanuel Mission Church: 22
· Living Word Korean Baptist Church: 12

8) We should contact David Yun (CCKC), SoYoung Choi (Immanuel Pres. Church), Stella Cho (Contra Costa), Bethel UMC, San Jose Onuri, New Life Church in Fremont, Daesung KPC, East Bay KPC, etc.

9) Idea: Advertise on Newspaper for credibility/publicity that needs about $300. Or, we ma advertise through emails. Also, writing newspaper articles about the camp will be also a good way of advertising.

10) Someone needs to make posters to post them on public locations: Korean markets, Academy/cram schools, and church bulletin boards. Volunteer is in need soon for the poster.

11) Pastor Lim (New Vision) will email us a revised application form that includes regulation/safety information.

12) Esther Song will make a blog for OIC summer camp which will include payment information, contact #, etc.

13) Cabins (128) – No restroom inside (needs to use public restroom outside).Lodge (149) – Includes restroom inside. It can fit 8 people.* There will be no fee difference between cabins and lodges. But, early birds will get priority to choose lodge or cabin.

14) Pre-visit the camp location (Redwood Alliance) tentatively on February 28, 2009 (Saturday morning).

15) Extra discussions:
