1. Web update/brochure — Karen update. Brain Rutherford is working on a draft of the website. The goal is to have it
up before the end of July. Sandy York submitted information that she had gathered. Julie took pictures of businesses
for Brain to use. Once we get the link to the first draft. Karen and Julie will review — send Brain any missing
information. At some point all members will have to look at it — as well as community members, to ensure
information is correct and complete.
2. Canada Day colouring contest — in lieu of an event the BIA will hold a colouring contest and we will decorate
downtown business windows with the art work. After Canada Day we will randomly draw 2 winners from 2 age
