Briefing
2. Center Stage, October 20, 2024 Draft Budget
Mari Jo Woolf-Whitaker presented the draft budget for review. During the presentation,
new committee member Ellie Watland inquired about the event and received a concise
overview of its past execution. Following thorough review and discussion of the budget
and event objectives, the committee granted approval for the budget to proceed to the
Chandler Cultural Foundation Board for final approval.
3. Entertainment
Terri Rettig expressed her intent to listen to the committee's ideas regarding event
themes, emphasizing her aim to align entertainment choices with the selected theme.
4. Theme
Susan Baker proposed a 1920s Paris-themed event, recommending the band We Three
for their ability to sing in French, with the added note that she had a personal connection
to them. Building on this theme, Christopher McMullan suggested a Chicago-themed
event. Peppur Chambers volunteered to craft an interactive 1920s theatrical experience.
To gauge preferences, Mari Jo Woolf-Whitaker proposed that Danielle Sezairi circulate a
survey among all committee members, presenting these three options and allowing them
to vote for their favorite.
