Since you recently resigned from the task force, I thought you might like to know that the task force has disbanded and its members will be participating on The Communications Group of Discover the Center. Earlier this year a letter was mailed to you regarding an annual volunteer appreciation to be held next February 1997, at which time a certificate of appreciation would be presented to you. Since all the other members of the task force will be receiving their certificates at this time, I thought it would be a good idea for you to receive yours as well. Therefore, enclosed is a certificate of appreciation for you to keep as a visible and lasting expression of gratitude. Again, thank you for your service on the task force.

McCauley 6301 Shingle Creek Pkwy Brooklyn Center, NIN 55430-2199 Dear Mr. McCauley, The Communications Task Force has reviewed your memo or June 4, 1996, and have decided to discontinue further meetings as a task force for the city. The Communications Task Force was established in 1990 and has provided the city with a number of projects since its inception. The Task Force, in the past, has worked closely with the Communication Coordinator and the city council and have completed various projects in which it takes great pride. I personally want to thank all that have served on the Task Force for the many hours spent helping the city meet their needs in the communications area. I would hope that the communication needs of the city will be continued by your staff in what I consider as a critical time for the city in presenting all necessary information to the media, and the citizens of Brooklyn Center. The Communications Task Force will disband, however it will continue on as a sub- committee of the Discover the Center group. The new name it has taken is The Communications Group of Discover the Center. We hope to be able to provide the necessary public relations and marketing programs for Discover the Center. I would hope the city will be able to continue to provide the'necessary center point for any correspondence received or coordination of necessary notice of meeting's distribution. The Communication Task Force thanks all those who have helped it completed its many projects and would hope that the past cooperation of the city will continue for the new Communication Group of Discover the Center. Thanks, Bernie Gaffney Communication Group Discover the Center • • City of Brooklyn Center Nancy Gohman 6301 Shingle Creek Pkwy Brooklyn Center, MN 55430-2199 Dear Nancy, I have issued a letter to Mike McCauley regarding the status of The Communication Task Force that informs him that we have disbanded that group and have become a sub- committee for Discover the Center.

In the past you and Ruth have been our contacts if we needed to get information to the members of the group and I hope this will continue for the new group.
