Meeting Minutes

Tyler started the meeting at 7:32PM.

We are going to look into a better reminder system for things like government paperwork and election preparation.

Jennifer gave the treasurer's report at 7:36PM. We are significantly ahead for the month of October and currently have 65 active/donating members.

If you have not logged into the donation system, PLEASE DO SO NOW. THIS IS A NECESSARY STEP IN ACCOUNT SETUP.

Tim gave the facilities report at 7:38PM. One bathroom uses industrial dispensers and the other uses home dispensers. Please refill them correctly. If you need any paper products, you can find them in the champagne room. You're also welcome to bring additional paper products. The sink had a leak problem and Cameron fixed it recently, so thanks Cameron!
