- Roll Call- Present: Joyce Weis; Paul Alanson; Patrick Endres; Marylee Bates; Sarah Finnell. Absent: Dave Miller
- Open in prayer by Joyce
- Accept minutes from March & April meeting (MSP Paul, Joyce)
- Signature items: Time sheets
- Financial Report
- Update on Governor’s Budget and BHAP- as of today, the budget includes 100% of the funding that we were relying on which was previously going to be cut out.
- Bookkeeper’s Report: the Drake property will cost us about $7300 over the course of the next year. If there are board members or someone connected to a board member who can take care of some of the expenses, that would be very helpful. Some of the maintenance needs include: boiler repair; egress window in the basement; gutters; painting; cleaning; snow removal. The board authorized Marylee to take money out of the Wedbush account to cover these costs (not taking it out of the ACF account).
- Marylee’s evaluation
- Patrick proposes that we as a board have a verbal evaluation with Marylee and the president will follow up with a summary letter to include in the ED file.
- The search for an ED replacement
- Potential interest from Rodney Gaskins
- ED salary and raise:
- Carhartts and Pearls After Action Review

- Good Venue (noisy kitchen though)
- Little talk by Marylee and video was great
- Delicious food
- People had fun!
- Drawings were great
- Desserts were great
- Live Auction was fun- no more than 3 or 4 items is ideal. Rob did a really fantastic job with it.
- The toast was a nice touch
- We could do better
- More general information about FYA (for those who might not know us). Put it around the space, throughout the desserts and drawing items.
- Invite participation more directly (board, volunteer, other)
- Possible slide showing with FYA info playing while people enter and mingle
- Meal service- they can’t serve two different entrees at the same time, so they served all the salmon first, then the beef came out later. We need either a different venue or only one entree.
- Entertainment- musicians and storytelling instead of live theater
- Point Person- Need someone to take charge if there is a problem (there were some last minute cancellations
- Faster Intake- people were already in line at 5:30, so there wasn’t time to huddle and delegate tasks
- Difficult to move through venue- no aisle for people to walk through
