 * 2/16/11 Minutes**


 * Discussed:**

1. Mark provided a structure for the manner in which the symposium might flow. See attachment entitled, "Anatomy of the Goddard Symposium". Committee agreed. However, Marci should review it and offer input.

2. We chatted about the necessity of finalizing who will be on the panel. Mark would like to write each participant a letter to welcome and thank them for their participation. Mark completed a letter to Dr. Kupfer 3/1/11

3. We chatted about the big themes that the symposium will examine. This was also captured in an annoucement Robin Jones edited.

__Critical to the success of Dr. Goddard were the leadership traits of:__


 * pragmatism / problem solving to get things done without partisan ideology getting in the way **
 * vision to look at the long term and big picture **
 * tenacity to overcome obstacles **
 * ability to work with diverse groups of people **

** Camp Hill Program on Longtime Resident Maurice Goddard Announced **

The Camp Hill School District, The Lion Foundation, and the Pennsylvania Park & Forests Foundation have joined in creating the annual Maurice Goddard symposium series for K-12 students. Honoring the longtime Camp Hill resident and patriarch of Pennsylvania State Parks, the Camp Hill School District will develop a series of programs for K-12 students that showcases the many attributes of a community and civic leader such a Maurice Goddard. The program uses Goddard as a role model to explore science, public policy, history, citizenship, environment, and communications.

The program will culminate each year with a symposium where students and the community are invited to attend a panel discussion on a chosen topic for the year.

The 1st annual Maurice Goddard Symposium Series will be on April 12th, 2011 at the Grace Pollock Performing Arts Center from 7-9 PM. This year’s inaugural discussion will be entitled, **“Getting Something Done, the Invisible Leadership of Maurice Goddard**.” Moderating the panel discussion will be President of the Pennsylvania Parks & Forest Foundation, Marci Mowery. Goddard’s leadership traits of vision, tenacity, problem solving, and working with diverse groups, will be explored as a model for 21st Century leadership. For more information on Goddard’s life and legacy go to; [], or []

Please join us in the discussion. The public is welcome and encouraged to attend!

 * 11/17/10 Meeting Minutes:**

We discussed this project having two components: 1) curricular and 2) the symposium. Our primary method of communication in addition to regular meetings will be through this Wiki space. Everyone is encouraged to comment in this space.

We discussed setting a date for a symposium as **Tuesday, April12th from 7-9 pm at the Pollock Center**. Mark will reserve the space.

A possible theme of the symposium would be: **"Getting Something Done....The Invisible Leadership of Maurice Goddard"** Discussions could develop around leadership traits and qualities that MKG had that lead him to:

__successful leadership:__


 * pragmatism / problem solving **
 * vision **
 * overcoming obstacles **
 * working with diverse groups of people ....**

Target audience would be MS/HS students as well as public and peers of MKG.

Discussion Panels for the symposium could include: Who he was, what type of leadership qualities he had that made him so successful (his value& vison), and how these qualities/values can be applied to solving problems/issues of today.

Mark demonstrated a 'WebQuest' program and we discussed using this as a curriculum tool to get students & community members involved in the project and the symposium.He also handed out a paper on how to organize a symposium.

Marci will post the WITF 1 hour video link to the MG video recently done, as well as the 10 minute summary version. Go to: witf.org All participants in this discussion are encouraged to watch the video before our next meeting. We may want to show the 10 minute version at the symposium as an introduction.

We discussed possible panel members: Cindy Dunn, student(s), Jim Grace, Tim Weston, Dr. Charlie Kupfer, Larry Schwieker. It was agreed that Marci Mowery should be the moderator for the event. We thought we should further define the discussion and theme of the panel before finalizing any additional speakers.

The Lion Foundation will put a piece in the January Boro Newsletter to publicize the event and the project. Marci will notify us of historical marker installation so we can include photo. The text of the historic marker is:

Maurice K Goddard, 1912-1995. A former Camp Hill resident and national leader in conservation, Goddard served an unprecedented career under five governors from 1955-1979 as Secretary of Forests and Waters and the Department of Environmental Resources. Goddard expanded the state park system, established state forest wild and natural areas, and professionalized forestry, parks and environmental management in state government.

Attendees: Mark Ziegler, Marci Mowery, Robin Jones, Chad Gallaher, Chris Doran.

9/26/10 Meeting Minutes:

We discussed the purpse, action steps, and responsibilities.

Discussed curicullar impacts: interdisciplinary with science at the core. This ushered in the need for a science rep. **Action taken: Mark sat down with Chad. He was agreeable to the project and will participate in our next meeting.**

Discussed symposium idea: Group felt we need this event on the calander. We need to define the event as this will clarify more specifically impact on curicullum. Need to make sure these align with state standards. Mark mentioned discussed the potenial of defining a webquest. See critical links for definition of a WQ. Group discussed pulling in the environmental club. Group discussed curicullar links to the Candensis (sp?) project Robin wanted to establish a stong relationship b/w the Lion Foundation and this project. Community and school working together.
