' ") Regular Council Meeting 9-23-02 Page 19 Dr. Parker says I know that we are anxious to get this moving, however, I was just thinking in light of Mr. Scazny's question, maybe it would be a good idea for us to ask Mr. Thomas or the Committee to maybe present or distribute to us a syllabus or outline that might answer some of those questions. I know that some of these costs are associated with purchasing equipment and start up. I think it's a great program. I just think it would make sense for the success of the program to have some structural framework and design that will allow the Committee Members to follow along and obviously they will want to tweak and change things. I think we should get something like that. In order to have success with kids, you want to have good organization, good framework, good goals. That would make it sure that the money is being used well. It's a great program and I support it, that's the only thing I might like to see at this point. Council President Buckholtz said that is fine, of course we wouldn't do it any other way. Perhaps I'm not articulating it very well. We've already prepared a mission statement, we submitted that to Council and a list of all equipment and a list of where we'll be heading, so we will keep Council closely posted.
