  • Storage management

  • Board job descriptions - those need to be written by all members. See Google doc.
  • TANGENT: Door code discussion. Having more people learn how it works.
  • area host teams: new area host applications. New push. Newsletters are most effective communication, call deadline by Aug. 5. Review previous applicants. Laser maintenance position has been difficult to fill. Mention free membership in lieu.
