Kids Day

Bob, is working with Liz Phillips, and would like to set June 1st aside as a family hack night, for about four hours. Kassie revisited the badge idea, and we all thought that was great. We might be able to reach out to Adafruit for some low cost badges if we promote them on our site. This may involve more structured activities in the future.

Kevin says we have 26 paying members and about $1000 in the bank.

MOTION - Kevin moved, and RIck Seconded that: EMS start paying the cost of our Comcast service.

Should we get garbage service?

It would be weekly service. Where would we put it? Not sure yet. We wondered who owns the dumpster in back, but no one could find out. Clif wants to keep having members take it out. Kevin thinks it would be better to get insurance first if we have any extra income.

Renew EMS SSL cert?

Unanimous approval.

Motion Carried
