The vote to select the officers was unanimous.

  1. Guild has been asked to provide a meal following the Memorial Service for Sabine Miner. Elaine will be in charge. The service is to be held Dec. 17 at 2:00PM.
  2. Kay and Elaine from the storage committee requested some dollars to purchase rolling wire racks from Costco while they are on sale. It was voted for them to be able to spend up to $350 for that purchase.
  3. It was moved and seconded to distribute funds to the following local charities:
    1. $1000 to Philomath Community Services
    2. $200 to Camp Lutherwood
    3. $200 to PYAC (Philomath Youth Activities Center)

The vote was unanimous to distribute these funds.

  1. Colleen suggested that when we purchase banners for the outside, that we purchase two-sided banners and place them so both sides can be seen. Possibly we could get a duplicate of the ones that we already have. It was decided to wait until a later time to decide.
