HTC Meeting held at Turtle Island Sales

Tuesday May 30th the HTC Steering Committee and Task Force Leaders met at the Turtle Island Sales Conference Room followed by a tour of the Turtle Island's eBay Drop off store.

Our successful application for the Building Entrepreneurial Communities Grant was discussed.

We were funded for a group tour to Valley County to view their HTC successes for $1000 with match of $1000 for a $2000 budget. Leslie will work on details as to when would be the best time to go. Possibly in the fall.

Also each county was funded for a Needs Assessment Survey for $4000 with a $4000 match. Ann Burge will work on the details and may have the Youth Committee involved.

We were also funded for a total of $6000 dollars members to attend the HTC Academy in Chadron this fall.

Matching Funds will be provided by the City of Imperial- $2500, the Grant Economic Development Committee- $2500 and Great Plains Communications- $5000. Also the Kellogg Foundation will provide $10,000 of assistance for technical service if we need to bring in speakers, programs, etc.
