t1hAL1 H VAix: members who participated in the Health Fair at Apache <br /> Plaza suggested having a gimmick to attract_ people to our <br /> table. <br /> TEEN HEALTH CENTER: Michelene Verlautz reported that there is a Teen <br /> Health Center proposed for Har Mar Mall. More <br /> information on this will be provided to members of our <br /> committee. <br /> i <br /> FOUNDATION: Jack Baker obtained information from the Heart <br /> Foundation regarding the establishment of a foundation <br /> that would pay for treatment costs of eligible people <br /> within our community. <br /> D.A.R.E.: A presentation on the D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance <br /> Education) program was given by Sgt. Michael Ganley who has been with the <br /> Minneapolis Police Department for 18 years. Sgt. Ganley was recipient of <br /> the 1987 V.F.W. J.Edgar Hoover Award by the National Council of <br /> Administration of the V.F.W. Presently he devotes full-time to the D.A.R.E. <br /> program to keep drugs away from kids. Officers are trained in Los Angeles <br /> for two weeks and return to their local school to give 17 weeks of one-hour- <br /> per-week instruction to (usually) 5th and 6th graders. <br /> CHEM Council members were impressed with the program. John and Shelley • <br /> Freeman will do follow-up. One problem for having the program is <br /> manpower because St. Anthony Village has seven officers. The question was <br /> raised about obtaining funds for the program. CHEM members agreed it <br /> would be good to lobby the state for support of this program statewide. <br /> NEXT MEETING: SAV Middle School; Tuesday, May 17, at 7:30 p.m. <br /> If you cannot attend please call Dorothy, 781-0361. <br /> Approved: Prepared by Dorothy Fleming, <br /> Secretary <br /> P.S. The "Malt Shop" proposal passed the St. Anthony City Council <br /> and Mike Bonaventura has plans to open in May of this year! <br />
