Advertising Conference: Owen to present at Central Office meeting, Jake reports Lifeline will be including full page advertisement in June and had reached out to Central Office events / activities chairs.

Roller Skating event planned for June. Mark reports Maxwell says we should only focus on Conference, because it will take up time advertising conference. Owen suggests leaving flyers on chairs for Conference.
Treatment Center report: Forrest and Stephanie went to First Step, Haven, and Turning Point but not Renaissance Ranch, lots of contact numbers to follow-up with. Forrest says Haven concerned (maybe First Step) too difficult to keep track of clients in open environment with limited staff. Alex suggests scholar shipping their staff. Mark and Forrest suggest charging smaller rates if they don’t spend the night.
