Decide how we can address marginalization.  Is diversity a goal?  Understanding is a goal and how to be anti racist.  The group is really a task force for the board and not a committee.  Motion to approve the charter as presented was approved with corrections.  Include a definition of racism and anti racism.  Review the progress on this effort at the board level and the charter in twelve months.

Facilities

The work on the historic structure is concluding successfully.  The Friends of the Meeting House made a large contribution.  We are working well with Findorff.  Our fund raising effort for the new facility is the next large effort to work on.

Financial Review for 2006-2007

We ended the year with a small surplus.  Our fund raising for the next few months will be our number one priority.  On the annual campaign Michael is asking that we have four handwritten notes from each Board member to those who have contributed previously and who have not made a pledge this year.
