Is FGM still gonna invest money in fixxing the SBWD building or are just gonna set it up as it is since were on a 6 month trial basis?


  Yes, were gonna spend a few $$'s to clean it up and a coat of paint.

  I'm hoping to paint the bathroom this weekend so it's ready for
Tuesday. I've got a suggestion for vacuuming the dust in the work area
and that requires a trip to Menard's for a 'sock filter'. With that, we
should be able to vacuum the floor so it's not so nasty.We still might
need to use Chuq's suggestion to scrub the floor w/ a degreaser.

  Outside of that, Tuesday is for working out ideas for how best to
setup the work area. Being were only going to open the warehouse one day
a week I would say not to expect for warehouse operation not to resume
en'mass til the first Tuesday in December. If we can get the clean up /
setup done sooner, we'll go ahead and rock and roll early.

   Just a reminder, presently; the warehouse WILL BE CLOSED on Tuesday
November 24th as my daughter and I are going to bed early for a trip to
Virginia for thanksgiving.

  BOD, Tuesday WH Super...

    The majority vote was to stay at SBWD for at least 6 months then
    review our situation.

    Goose will supervise the warehouse on Tuesday evenings; opening
    and closing times are up to him. The warehouse will be open next
    Tuesday. There will be no Thursday night sessions until we (me and
    the board) recruit a supervisor for Thursdays.

    Imre, Chuq and Phil’s retirements from warehouse work have hit us
    hard as has suspending the FreeBox program. Completing preparation
    for the move and finding and moving to a new warehouse have filled
    my time recently. There are several important tasks which need
    close attention (including completing the 501c3 application,
    finding a site partner for the computer lab, recruiting two more
    board members, recruiting more volunteers, planning a fund raising
    and marketing campaign and publishing the FGM Joomla site) so I
    won’t be supervising the warehouse for a while and that leaves us
    short handed.

    Fr. Robert, Mike and Chuq have FGMLUG running on a regular
    schedule and the web site is up so that project doesn’t need my
    full attention.

    I sent draft minutes of the board meeting to the board members to
    review and received additions and corrections from Mike. There
    hasn’t been time for me to make the edits and publish the minutes.
    This is why you haven’t heard about the warehouse decision and
    schedule.

    Nope, it's all good. Everything got moved faster then expected.
    All we have to do is vote to accept SBWD (or Langlab) and get busy!

    Wednesday night (much better now). I was pretty sure no one else
    wanted what I had plus I didn't think I could have contributed
    much. If we have anything else left out at Chippewa that will fit
    in my car I'm willing to make a run after the board meeting.
