| Finance
Jason Cotuu |
Each event has been costed out. Still in the process of building the financial picture.
The change of end of year has affected our financial picture somewhat to the negative. All told we should be ~4k in the red. A very good year. 700 lines of raw transactions to account for, there is a lot of work in financials with a big year like this. Next year we will need a standing financial committee that meets once per month to monitor transactions and help stay on top of things. |

Directors reports. Ideally they will be done by November meeting so we can send out a package to the membership Board voted for Sunday November 27th 1:00pm.

| President (Wendy) | Mou- still no response from DGS, they still have not met since May.
