Board meeting June 20 2019

Our next board meeting will be Thursday June 20. This is the last meeting of the 2018-2019 board and we’d like all members of the new board to be in attendance also so everything carries over.

Agenda will be here:

Speaking of the new board where is our election committee?

Thanks for speaking up. I’ve been fighting the urge.

Apologies. The following should have probably been posted last night.

The voting period ended at 9:00pm Tuesday. We do have results gathered
from SurveyMonkey. We are, however, holding off on posting those results
until all members of the election committee have had a chance to review
and confirm the accuracy of the final results.

We will post election results no later than this (Wed) evening.

Thank you for your patience.

Ooh I have an agenda item!

We need to have a plan to update this terribly out of date page:

http://makeict.org/leadership/

It’s very important so new members can get names+faces, I feel bad that it’s out of date, but this is a great time of year to get nice consistent outdoor photos of everybody.

Can anyone bring a “better than my cell phone” camera?

Otherwise, it’s my cell phone. I’ll be early to the board meeting (6-ish) to get what I can, if I don’t get your photo you have to stay late. How’s that for a threat.

I also updated my wiki page. You should do the same! http://makeict.org/wiki/User:Kim

Our truck is in the shop and I have a phone interview at 530. I can call in though Hangouts or Skype if needed.

How do you get a wiki page?

NOMCON 2019

100% better than last year. We have so much good information to bring back. We wish we had 1 more person to cover the sessions we couldn’t attend. We’ll debrief on June 30th at 4 PM. The debriefing will include Some Survey data and the coins, which we will give to their rightful owner. Malissa is now the state rep for Kansas and the Indiana delegation has offered support. They have a state nonprofit organization, the makerspaces formed together to help support each other and have a template we can follow. We would like to invite other makerspaces to the debriefing.
