information/advertising at last meeting.  What do we
want on it????-page is palouseaids.org.  Jeff has
friend Brad who might be willing to work on web page
(note Jeff has emailed to say that Brad will
definitely work on web page).  Things we want on it:

to get people to come to meetings and World AIDS Day
events, Letter to people, email, phone, links to
programs such as Ryan White, IDWA, Stonewall, PRIDE,

HIV is not a gay issue but an issue that effects
everyone, etc.

·	Update information on World AIDS Day Quilt in
regards to speaking with RPC:  RPC money will be going
to Face to Face.  We will need to raise money for
Quilt, talk to IDWA, or find another funding source.  

·	Update fairground rental information:  Brad and
Spring went to fairgrounds in Moscow to attempt to
reserve space for Quilt.  Ran into problem with person
who runs grounds.  She said all halls were reserved,
but when looking at reservation book all dates were
completely open.  The woman would not work with us. 
Decision in meeting was to form subcommittee of
Spring, Brad, Jonny to write letter to give to
locations by referral of Jeff.

·	Project Face-to-Face update-Watched video presented
by Amy.  Group very excited about program coming. 
Please see pftf.com for more details.  Amy will be
making a copy of the tape to give to Spring for those
interested.  The project will be on display starting
on World AIDS Day, Dec. 1st.  The artist will come to
town a week early to make a cast of local citizen’s
face who is HIV positive.  Group is asked for any
outreach ideas to bring to next meeting.

·	Note for later discussion:  Fundraising brainstorm,
Where to donate raised money and other donations,
advertising, etc.

·	Open:  Amy said she would check 1912 building and
locations on UI campus for possible spots for Quilt. 
Spring will send Amy information on Quilt
requirements.  Jeff will research non-profit status
for program (just to know what requirements are, not
that we are necessarily doing).  Discussed

AIDS Day.
