Meeting with DCI:
On November 14, 2009, members of the Momentum Board met in Indianapolis with DCI Executive Director, Dan Acheson, and DCI Events Coordinator, Sue Kuehnhold. The meeting was held to discuss the current and future status of Momentum as well as for us to receive advice for our long-term relationship with DCI. During the meeting, both Mr. Acheson and Ms. Kuehnhold were very enthusiastic in their desire to help us build our organization. They were impressed by our methodical approach to building the organization on a solid foundation and our willingness to be patient before developing the performance aspect of the corps. At the end of the meeting, Mr. Acheson stated that he fully believes that we will succeed in our goals. That voice of approval will go a long way in keeping up our drive to succeed.
