with them Cindy and Mary will meet with Anne Scigliano of the
Minuteman to determine the details of her responsibility ( size
or calendar, frequency, visual aids, assistant editor or staff,
scope of coverage) . One point raised in the discussion was that
the calendar would prbvide a service to the clubs at the High
bchool, and should publicize their events as well as those of
community groups like Hayden, local colleges, elementary schools,
student councils school sports , student classified ads Other
suggestions included something similar to the Summer Co-op 's �
calendar, establishing a central box at the High school in which
people may submit any events to be publicized, andrunning the I
calendar in conjunction with Max-Ed . Many of thege ideas will
be discussed with the Minuteman staff, and should be decided
upon by the next meeting Cindy will be invited to our meetings
so that she will be aware of our projects as well as keeping

in the area with Youth Commissions . Although few of the Commissions
are run like ours , they (Nr Miller„Jeff, and Jeanne). have a list
of names of people in charge of their respective groups At the
next meeting a decision will be made on a date to invite them to
attend our meetings or on some kind of idea-exchange program. The
League of Women Voters is conducting a Youth Workshop with other
