Parkersburg's Advisory Council met yesterday

We had a productive meeting of the Parkersburg Advisory Council yesterday. Besides recapping the successful 30th anniversary event at the end of February, and hearing about some of the site's and agency wide strategic planning efforts, we spent the most time planning a major event for November 6, at the Parkersburg Art Center. This will be a "kick off" (early!) of the Little Red Stocking campaign, by being a holiday stocking display and auction. Stay tuned for more details; various committees will start now doing the planning. We were also very pleased to have one of our foster parents join the advisory council, Missy Rickart. She participated actively, along with one of her foster children! She seemed excited to become involved, and it fulfills one of our goals, of getting our vibrant foster care program involved in the wider site development and marketing efforts.
