I wanted to remind all of you that our next meeting is this Saturday April 7 at 10:00 am at the Maynard Ave. United Methodist Church, 2350 Indianola Ave. I hope that many of you will attend because this will be a packed meeting.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>As we discussed at previous meetings, the media will be present at this meeting to discuss our concerns with Project Mainstream, and how their lack of customer service is having such a negative impact on our ability to be independent blind people. We will want to present ourselves as confident and concerned citazens who have a legitimate problem. Though we need to have ours concerns expressed, we don’t want this to be just a gripe session. We all understand that Mainstream is a shared ride service, and that they require some additional planning that regular COTA does not need. These will not be concerns that anything can be done about. We want to focus on the times that Mainstream has been extremely late, unprofessional in dealing with complaints, and documented other concerns. Everyone should come dressed to be on camera, even if you don’t talk to the reporter yourself. I want to thank Dustin Granstaff for his hard work in setting this up.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Also, after the meeting, we will be gathering at Mikey’s Late Night Slice downtown.
