New Business

• • Paul O. would like the notes to reflect that the hot sauces made at the last kitchen class are about as hot as Tabasco, or at least that is what Kitchwitch has claimed

• • Books and Niebazzo are using a shelf in the CNC area to recycle IPA (not the beer).

• • Woodshop area host has resigned, James will send an email to Eric to thank him.

• • Paul will talk to the existing woodshop volunteers to see who would be a good next host.

• • Ryan Pierce reads a prepared statement about beer church. He is asking the board to prohibit the use of PS:1 to purchase ingredients related to the brewing of ingredients. The board and area hosts will be doing some more research with the lawyer and other similar organizations such as chaos brew club before making a decision in this regard.

Old Business

• • Working meeting for documentation updates.
