Agenda was approved.
2. Approval of Minutes
The Committee approved the minutes from the August 21, 2014 meeting.
3. Airport Display Case
We need to re-do the contract with the airport. Maria will take care of this. Discussed
changing out the display since it appears that Mayor Lachica will not be visiting Juneau. Next
Display will highlight all of the Sister Cities for the holidays with an item or two from each
one. We will discuss when to change it out at the next meeting.
4. Kalibo Update
a. Mayor Lachica’s visit – It appears that this will not happen this year.
b. Joan checked with the Mayor’s office on the status of the Agreement/Proclamation
and it will be completed soon. Joan discussed with them when to do signing in Juneau
and it was suggested that it coincide with the Filipino Community Christmas dinner in
December. Someone could then take it to Kalibo and have a signing there.
5. Recruitment of Committee Members
Glenn Gray has resigned from the Committee. We need to mention the vacancy to friends
and associates. Possibly have a member from the Filipino Community.

students bringing dishes from their country.
