Please add your suggestions for topics this committee might consider.
- Consider inviting political leaders whose jurisdiction includes Kitt Peak to a culmination event in March 2010.
- Leverage the opportunity to introduce the new NOAO director to the community
- The "local" community relations committee should be thinking about what kinds of events, web pages, school programs, etc., should be developed for the "local" community, which in this case means
- Tucson
- Pima County
- Arizona
- other cities in Arizona
- could be outreach to political leaders, as well as institutions, professional associations, etc....
