• Diana - online advertising
• Carl/Josh - getting folding table for set-up
• Vaughn - box o' coffee
• Wade - change
• All of us - for showing up to help, and bringing shit to sell

Budget

Meghan has graciously offered (no, really) to head up the budget committee for this year. A separate meeting will be scheduled to start hashing out our proposed spending.

Fundraising Concepts

To alleviate some of the BM camp costs, we decided to try out fundraising this year. So far we have the following ideas:

Poker Party @ the loft

Saturday 2/24 - 7pm. Games start at 8pm.
Final details to be discussed at the next meeting, but so far:

• Evite - Vaughn will send out at the end of January
• Unlimited buy-ins
• winner gets 30% of the pot
• donating a % to a charity???

Party at the loft

Date TBD
This is just a general party, people buying cups/drinks. We also discussed doing a raffle, so if you can get your hands on cool free schwag, start squirreling it away now.

Possible Charities

(we can brainstorm more later as well):

• BRAF
• Habitat for Humanity

Structure Discussions

Porch

Meghan wants it to rotate. It's not looking good. However, we did talk about having roll-uppable (and downable) shades to control sunlight. Josh has some bamboo-ey roll-up shades that he's donating for the cause.

Dome

Josh is going to look into acquiring used billoard canvas so we can get a jump on the dome covering this year.

Tent shelter

Jeff said he's got this one under control. Everyone gets a spot in the shade except Vaughn.
