[01:13 PM]  Doc Spad: Well…I have no desire to waste anyones time… we do not have enough people for a quorum as yet…. I would like to have a discussion on the agenda issues, however…and if the others get here in time…we’ll officially convene and votes on the two motions on the table…any comments??
[01:14 PM]  Bock McMillan: Go ahead Doc
[01:14 PM]  Tootsie (tootsie.nootan): ok, lets discuss doc
[01:15 PM]  Nanaki Raymaker raises hand
[01:15 PM]  Doc Spad: OK then… We have established a positive line of communication with people at the IGLHRC… I talked to their funraising director and the guy that has the account in SL works for her… so once we move the $$$ to him she will be expecting it from him
[01:16 PM]  Doc Spad: She will print up a reciept…showing our contribution…e-mail it to me and we will post it on the website
[01:17 PM]  Doc Spad: Marge and I worked up the numbers…and we have determined that $700 US gets us close to the amount that last years Board had intended
[01:18 PM]  Doc Spad: We will use an additional $50 US to join an international Pride organization and get us involved with other Pride activities worldwide….more to let them know that we are here…and to involve them in our festival
[01:19 PM]  Doc Spad: Questions…comments…tomatoes???
[01:19 PM]  Nanaki Raymaker raises hand
[01:20 PM]  Nanaki Raymaker: Can you tell us how it is exactly you arrived at a figure of 700 USD? Will we receive a breakdown of this?
[01:20 PM]  Doc Spad: yep…it will be sent out in the next treasurers report
[01:21 PM]  Nanaki Raymaker: Will we receive this report before or after the planned vote is taken?
[01:21 PM]  Nanaki Raymaker: to send the funds
[01:22 PM]  Doc Spad: Looing atthe crteria that was established by the 2010 Board… $ 700 US is close…we wanted to round the numbers… in addition… We intend to contibute at least another $300. US to them in the next several months to round it out to an even $1000 US…that way we will be listed in their Real World directory of contributors
[01:22 PM]  Doc Spad: Looking
[01:23 PM]  Doc Spad: It will be out before
[01:23 PM]  Nanaki Raymaker: that’s all I wanted to know thanks
[01:23 PM]  Doc Spad: anything else?
[01:25 PM]  Doc Spad: OK…Khar is going to enlighten us with plans for an upcoming event…I hope that this will be a launch of a robust event sched…and define the new way we have these events… We want to educate and get people involved in RL gay issues…fundraising is secondary

[01:29 PM]  Khar (kharissa.indigo): This Event will spark a series of Events that will be educational as well as fundraisers
[01:30 PM]  Doc Spad: The thrust…(like that word)…is to get people to DO something… we oiften have had events where people dance and toss a couple of bucks in the till…I want to get people to go out into their comminities and be proactive…learn the issues and carry the banner that Pride began…
[01:31 PM]  Doc Spad: If you want to understand the point of view…read the blog post “Be A Warrior”… I don’t want to repaeat it all here…you can read on your own time

[01:31 PM]  Tootsie (tootsie.nootan): might be good to run during the event
[01:32 PM]  Jared Palianta: In The Month of September alone 6 teens ended their lives because of bullying and taunting
[01:32 PM]  Khar (kharissa.indigo): I think that’s an excellent idea
[01:32 PM]  Jared Palianta: October is National Bully Awareness Month so I think this event set’s the tone for the mission

[01:39 PM]  Tootsie (tootsie.nootan): that sounds like a great proposal, everyone to the bar after the meeting
[01:41 PM]  Doc Spad: Lem…we are still trying to estabish the criteria…. we have several builders and a RL archetect that are interested in working on the festival…. BUT we still need to decide if they would opperate better as a committee of one or have a leader… they are “creative” people and they need creative freedom….but I’m still not certain that they can be hearded like cats
[01:41 PM]  Doc Spad: We also need a Secy…ass Zen has disappeared from SL
[01:43 PM]  Doc Spad: I apologize for the rest of the Boards absence… and we’ll reschedule in a few weeks so that we can get these issues voted on and off the agenda… anything anyone has to add?
