the draft was good.

V. COUNCIL WEB SITE
Drury had also shared a list of potential new names for the Council in an effort
to rebrand. Members also discussed the possibility of keeping the name, but
adopting a tag line, which would prevent having to change the name through
ordinance. Members discussed the ideas and took votes on them just to
measure support. CoMo Active received 6 votes, Be Well Columbia 2 votes,
Live Well Columbia 3 votes, Let’s Move CoMo 5 votes, CoMo Fit 4 votes and
Move it Boone 0 votes. After that, members votes on the top two and votes
equaled CoMo Active 4 votes and Let’s Move CoMo 7 votes.
Miller said she had talked to the City’s web master about creating a calendar of
events with submission form. He said it was possible to do that but would take
several days of work and then would require moderation. He would need to get
permission from supervisors to proceed. Miller said it would be also helpful to
provide specific examples to him before possibly proceeding.
Burks said that Drury is now an administrator of the Council’s Facebook page.
Others may also be interested in helping keep the page updated.
Members discussed possible activities for the year to put on the web site,
including Glow Zumba. Miller said she did not know of any Glow events currently
scheduled but she would check.
Riel had an idea of offering a kids activity at the Farmers Market, such as a
coloring booklet that would promote health and nutrition. Members could set up
a table with signage.
The idea will be added to the April meeting agenda.
Members discussed other ideas including a Kids Fun Run, walking groups and
Color Runs.
Pass commented that there are so many things already going on in the
community, she wondered if it would be beneficial to offer to partner with an
event already in existence, as a co-sponsor.
Burks said he could create a Google document that members could share and
add events that they learn about.
Riley said she’d reach out to Columbia Public Schools, Burks will reach out to
Boone Hospital, Pass will reach out to MU Health, Riel will reach out to the
University of Missouri campus as a whole and Lero will reach out to Veterans
United.
Raine mentioned the idea of contacting local human resources managers to
work on employee fitness incentives.
Members discussed sharing ideas with companies if possible to identify some
of them.
Burks made a motion, seconded by Riley, to table the topic until the next
meeting. Motion passed 11-0.
VI. BYLAWS PROPOSAL
Miller said she needed to follow up with Legal on the idea of changing quorum
requirements.
