A motion was brought forward to move more money for Programs from the current $2000 to $4500. Motioned by Chadalee & Jeanne. Vote was passed by members.
It was brought before the members to move some of the guild meetings to the 3rd Tuesday of the month if needed in order to share speakers with other Quilt Guilds. Members were in favor of this. Will look at maybe changing the meetings to the 3rd Tuesday of every month next year if this works out well to share speakers.
