Agenda

We began with 3 ૐ's, after several (in)appropriate Jesus jokes.

Annual Circle

Could be at Scooter's or E!'s Summit House party room.

Proposed agenda items:

  • Fun / connecting / spiritual stuff
  • Steward declarations & the "officers"
    (Rocky will be gone and announced his renewal at this Circle)
  • Retrospective of 2012
  • 2013
    • Cabin is gone; what to do with the hole? Flatten or mudpit? Yurt?
    • Electronics on the land
    • Upcoming gatherings and gatherettes
    • Archive check-in ~ next steps

Well-Testing

When is last time it was tested and what for? It's been a long time ago, tested for what County required. If you want to test for more, need to pay for it.

  • Consensus - let's spend the $ to test (re-test?), including items Oni & Kiva deem worthy.

Electronics on the Land

Disco & BFP; generator; solar battery & lights; laptops; cameras; tablets; stereos; (noisy, bright, flashy) apps

Pictures / videos easier and easier to publish

Phone & data service very likely coming to the land.

Practical uses: registration, directory production, research projects...

We are "away from"; a value to stay "away from"; sanctuary

Picture & videos "policies"; In car in parking lot? Tent?

Volunteer Opportunities

Aliveness Project ~ we could do the waitressing / dishwashing to help with their fundraiser. Scott to keep Sidthe up to date on eta, etc.

Claire Housing ~ we help prep, serve meals & clean up; possibility to meet afterwards.

Dumpster

Was chock full. It's ass was dragged off the land. Bill paid. Future ones will not need to be so big and costly.

Financial Report

Provided by Ehsea

  • Lammas 2012 report, including In-kind ~ is that possible?
