College
Goal Sunday, Off and Running
Submitted
by: Cissy VanSickle, Chair
College Goal Sunday is off and running. The date for 2006 is February 12, 2006. Nevins and Associates has again been hired for public relations and flyers and posters have gone to print. The web site is in the process of being updated. Tentative sites for 2006 are:
College Goal Sunday continues to be financially supported by USA Funds, Lumina Foundation, AES and ASA. Partners such as Comcast and Radio One continue their commitment in support of this program as well as the Education Departments from DC, DE and Maryland. Our committee is fortunate in having dedicated committee members from schools, lenders , MHEC and the U.S. Department of Education. This year’s committee members are: Chris Koterba, Lynn Lee, Pat Shoemaker, Melissa Gregory, Mark Gay, Margaret Bowler, Jerry McKeen, Dave Manning, Debbie Jenkins, Sharon Hassan, Cathy Geier, Tara Yancy, Yvette Washington, Ron Smith, Nancy-Pat Weaver, Hazel Mingo, Jane Collins, Cissy VanSickle, Susan Erb, Maria Whitaker, Helen Castallanos, Debra McCain, Carylin Brinkley, Gene Logan, Cindy Harbel, Diana Ford (high school counselor) and Karen McKay. Pamela Poore and Andrea Mansfield also contribute to the committee, as well as Kirstie Durr. Of course, the success of our program depends on the volunteers at each site. Without your hard work, dedication and willingness to give up a Sunday afternoon, the program would not be successful. Be sure to look for our volunteer recruitment form coming soon. The Committee is also working and cooperating with NASFAA’s national College Goal Sunday program and has participated in several meetings and events with their chair, Marcia Weston. The next CGS committee meeting is September 22nd at 10 a.m. at the SUN 204 of Anne Arundel Community College.
