Outreach Committee Holds Inaugural Meeting

The newly formed NAC Outreach Committee held its first meeting in Las Vegas on April 10, 2016 just prior to the start of CinemaCon. The committee was formed in January with the goal of expanding the reach and influence of the NAC Community and to involve all Operators and Vendors to improve the work of the Association. Going forward, the group will meet twice monthly via conference call.

After an initial request for volunteers by Outreach Committee Co-Chairs Denise de Zutter of AMC Theatres and Shelly Olesen, ACS, of C. Cretors and Company, the committee roster filled out quickly as enthusiastic members answered the call to serve the Association.

Members of the Committee are John Bluck of Sodexo Sports & Leisure; Robert Case of New Pants Publishing; Bill Clapes of DEEL! Media; Brandy Graham of Great Western Products; Bernard Hayes of Audubon Nature Institute; Steven Lew, CCM, of New Orleans City Park; Joe Macaluso of Weaver Popcorn Company; Kavitha Reddy of Athens Movie Palace; Teke Sankey, ACS, of Vistar; Steven Taylor of J & J Snack Foods Corporation and Theresa Tomczak of Kernel Season’s.
