Career departments. The first steps are now underway in approaching people
to write the scripts and organize the music for the evening. It is planned
to be presented in the Cafetheatre - along the theme of the trials and
tribulations involved in being a student.
MEDIA RESOURCES:
-requested that $400.00 be set aside for a special tape-slide presentation to
be put together. This will be accomplished by Edna Stakata -so the money
represents only the cost of materials. A formal request will be submitted
to the Principal for the cost of production, and this proposal was supported
by all those present.
HISTORY:
-Robert Campbell has proposed that a North Shore Canadiana exhibit be mounted
The display would be made up from donations from community members (who would
receive credit for lending their material and would have guarantee of safe
return of the items). The committee members need to have a more specific
description of how this project would be mounted. In support of this, Hilary
Clark said that Retail Fashion would be willing to put on a mini-fashion show
in conjunction with this to model their historic costume collection.

a film festival has been proposed- requiring an estimated $300.00 in funding
