Editing revision 2 of 2011-08-22 Meeting

Present: Norval, Heather, Anita, Lynn, Dan (notes) Minutes of the last meeting: not available. Probably only three people were there and there was no quorum. ===Pride Week Report=== Lynn and Dan and Jim Morrison, a prof from St Mary's presented to about forty people about the importance of preserving history. Pennants: we made about a hundred, and almost all were sold; a few people have a little stash of them. Some "seconds" got made into a tablecloth for the picnic. Brochures: 250 were printed and lots are still available for events. ===August Event Report=== Yesterday's event: 24 people showed up at about 2:00pm, including several new people. We commandeered the Gazebo at the Dingle Park but then got booted out an hour later by a Buddhist Wedding. Luckily that fit with the progress of the meal and we re-encamped out onto the grass for another couple of hours and bonded over cornbread. Most people packed up around 5:00pm. We got several emails thanking us for hosting the event. Company House: cost model confirmed - we could lose money. ===Greeting / Thanks / Etc Cards=== Anita will create the cards. ===Programs=== The LGBT Anglican group has asked if we can move our event from the 3rd to 4th Sunday of the month so there's no conflict there. September 25th: Nick will talk about photography with the title, "Falling In Love With Pictures", at Spencer House. WHO WILL BOOK SPENCER HOUSE?? September 16-17-18: Doctors Without Borders are setting up a refugee camp in Halifax. We'll invite the membership to go to see it together. October 23rd: Nadine Lapierre talks about her book and being an author. November 27th: Recipe Exchange. Theme "Cooking For One Or Two On A Budget." Dan will create a recipe book for all recipes submitted one week before the event. Christmas: not discussed. ==Other Business== Reclaim The Night: It's a march in October against violence Fund Raising Dance: DAN will ask Wolf if he'd do it, and how much he would charge. ANITA will ask Veith House and find out if it's available, and when, say, 7-11 on a Saturday evening. And she will ask whether alcohol is allowed on site. NSRAP is setting up an Elders Issues Committee for political stuff. Next meeting: Septembre 26th at Lynn's Place. Meeting adjourned at 8:30. Thanks all!
