House Keeping
- Rachel made a motion to vote for a member as Vice Chair in Heidi’s absence. This would help have a Board Member in a leader-like position. Motioned to vote Kevin for the position of Vice Chair noting he is knowledgeable about MA board laws, regulations, and has procurement. He drives our biggest fundraising event for the last ten years.
- Amanda seconded this motion. Kathleen was in favor and Karen in favor.
- We discussed the need for a third signer. And noted the focus needs to be on procedure and communication of checks requested. We need Procedure of Best Practices.
- Karen gave an update on the Book keeper Interest.
- FYI Funds Update: International Travel Checks were approved and sent. T&L spent $150 on an open house raffle prize for attendees.
