ISSUES COMMITTEE:
Officer Anthony Addante, Adult Advisor, George Clowes, Adult Advisor
th
Adult Advisor George Clowes reported Adult Advisor Steven Polit had 89 surveys from the Lions Club July 4
festival at Melas Park; he suggested flagging where the surveys were from so the software could sort by location
(target area concerns with our Outreach). Michael Boivin agreed. Mr. Clowes said when the schools resume; we
should aim to mail out surveys to schools, churches, park districts, and other community groups. When these
surveys come in, they should also be flagged by grade, school and so on. Chairman Pro Tem Gawlik suggested
reassignments to replace graduates on the committees since some, like the Issues Committee, no longer have any
youth members.
Preliminary review of the surveys by Delanie Steinweg and Michael Boivin suggest peer pressure, drugs,
alcohol, remain frequent youth issues.
