SUMMARY:CD Outreach Work Group (CDOWG)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor those of you who may be interested in CDOWG working through the process of tracking the special days of recognition (weeks/months too) through the year\, and how we may be able to help provide social media and/or other materials to CDs to alleviate the burden of everyone having to recreate the wheel\,  there will be a subgroup of the CDOWG meeting at our normal CDOWG meeting time in May\, the 24th at 10 am. \nThe goal of this subgroup is to start coming up with a list of as many of the events/dates as we can\, find the links to their resources if they’re already prepared\, and get them on the MACD calendar for CDs to use.  We can also talk about a project that Radley had discussed before—a “what kinds of education projects do all the CDs do?” sort of thing. I did find my old binder that the EO put together years ago\, and have scanned it\, so I have the beginnings of that project.  You should all have received the link to it.  It’s not a comprehensive look at what kinds of things CDs do\, but is a start.  I’ll be happy to help lead that discussion for now\, unless someone else would like to step up! \nContact Tahnee Benson (SheridanCD@macdnet.org) or Eric Rannestad (eric@macdnet.org) for zoom information. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
