Hot Basil Cafe
Date: July 13, 2011
Attendance: Brian Isikoff, Steve Hackett, Nate Brown, Kathy Deng, Jennifer Farros
Welcome Volunteers & Introductions
Brian welcomed and thanked Nate and Kathy for volunteering to help the Board. Everyone introduced themselves and shared a little of their background.
Minutes
Jennifer submitted Retreat minutes, which were approved.
Treasurer’s Report
Steve reported that there was nothing to report, as there has been no income or expenses since the last meeting.
Membership/NAPM-DV Value
Jennifer reported 45 members. She presented a graph, which showed membership peaking in April. Board discussed phenomenon of gradual increase of members each year. It is suspected that it may have to do with dues being pro-rated. An existing member has 6 months to rejoin without having to pay the new member/initiation fee of $30.
Board discussed the NC affiliate offer of joining for $85 and believes it may have to do with fees being pro-rated. Jennifer will ask Jan Miller for clarification.
