Adler Pop-Up - Dec 26-20
- Is this for promo for us or for kids outreach
- If you want to get involved touch base with Andrew C (President), Ash (CNC), Ray (PR)
Jeff C - Member meeting is not a inviting to new members - consider having softer introductions to guests and new members
Working group updates discussion - Tom J. concerned that groups is "old-boys-club", not enough communication from the membership, that groups exist or meet - Ed B. mentions that open calls to the group were made and that people that can make a consistent commitment to attend and participate are welcome. Coming in for one meeting for random input disrupts general flow of discussion and progress. Work performed by these groups (not including those related to fiduciary duties of the board) will be presented to membership for review. - Aushra A. says that the groups are composed of people that show up and participate - Andrew C. commits to do more to notify the membership of groups and progress, agrees currently messy process but much to do.
