Board Training Thoughts
LD highlighted that our board trainings this year should be relevant to all going on in FY21. MM mentioned "renewal process and accountability " training would be beneficial as our charter will go through this process this spring/summer , with a submittal due Aug 2021. MM also suggested asking this board at our next meeting , what interests them the most to learning more about this year. LD will start the meeting with these suggestions and SW will creat a google form during our Oct 20th meeting to poll results from these suggestions , before we adjourn. Our next GC meeting will focus on timing and content of the trainings after we get more information from the Board on their interests.

We will bring updates regarding these prospects to our next meeting.
The committee also decided that we will onboard all new Trustees (stemming from these potentials) as a group, in January .
