We need to come up with entertainment (games, contests) from 6-10 to fill the time. Ideas: masquerade contest. Please bring up ideas to the next meeting. Think fun! It's in New Year's Day at the Atlantis. We need group ideas for this. So far: Masquerade masks decorating, fortuneteller, and picture frame decoration.

Subcommittee meeting for brainstorming

Motion to move the Halloween event to 10/31/15 unanimous

New business - sky bylaws - attendance and what happens with breaks in sobriety: failure to attend 2 times in a row is considered resignation. Break in sobriety is a resignation.

Motion to accept the guidelines by a unanimous vote
