Absent: Wendy Biggs, Amanda Buntjer, Tim Halfman, John Parpart, Jeff Pinkerton

Treasurer’s Report: Accounting sheets were passed out by Angie H. No clarifications were asked for. Leslie asked for a separate accounting entry under sponsorship that was for designated funds towards a specific project. Reason: as grants are applied for, often a financial statement is being asked for that indicates how much money has been raised towards a specific project as the grant will match funds raised by us. Angie will make an entry for designated funds.
