MAY MEETING AGENDA
FCBF BOARD MEETING AGENDA
May 15, 2019
High School Internship Program/Website Development
We have an intern to build our website from May 20-June 7. His name is Daniel Brennan.
We will need to have three board meetings during the internship one each week to review progress and provide guidance. Proposed dates: May 20, 29 and June 7th.
Dan is interested in the law and politics, so if someone could take him to court, etc. that would be great. I am taking him to our office of June 4 for an educational luncheon we have internally. I would like to have a field trip once a week to a law firm or court for his own development.
