Treasurer

Tallied up two weeks ago, a couple of new member sign ups but no dues yet. Lost a couple of members. So slightly in the red month to month at this point. Our balance is somewhere around $3000 in the bank. We have roughly 18 members.

Opportunity Village follow up:

No action as been taken yet but, we should talk to them and see if they are still interested. If so we will bring it to the members for consideration. So we need more info before we can proceed.
