Incidentally, I know the idea of a Fundraising committee is still just getting off the ground, but could we get an idea of when we would have a fundraiser, and for how long? In order for the site notices to be effective, we have to maintain some downtime between uses, and we need to be able to plan the other uses as much as possible.
The board is voting on the establishment of the fundraising committee on the board wiki. If they pass the resolution I wrote w/o modification, then the committee should be set up soon (next couple weeks). I imagine the first order of business would be to organize the next fundraiser. Pre-planning may begin as soon as this weekend if I can find the time.
But having a drive soon is not too pressing due to the huge success of the last fundraiser, higher than expected non-fundraiser background donations since, and lower than expected expenses so far this year. The spending side may change if one or more committees asks for a significant increase in their budget (now being worked on).
