What is critical is the calendar. This needs to be resolved state by state. D. MacKenzie offered his assistance in developing the draft and in producing the videos on how to work with Congress. This is tentative but it is typically held on the second week of April. The Committee needs to meet one day and a half.
Dates are to be firmed up.
C. Laughlin also offered to host it in Hawaii. 21st is arrival, start meeting on 22nd, joint on the 23rd and wrap up half day of 24th. Helms reminded that schedules of the regional meetings should also be submitted. The schedule of the meetings will be posted on the web. D. Mackenzie requested the Regional Executive Directors to submit the names of their representatives to the subcommittees, technical committees, cooperating committees and other groups.
