50th Anniversary:
Jesse – current dates in consideration: 9/24 and 10/1.
Sharon presented prices (quotes from BYOG in Dublin) for t-shirts to be sold at National Festival, or locally to publicize and commemorate the 50th anniversary.
Elishiva suggested that we survey the members as to who would buy a t-shirt.
Art – suggested that if promotion is the aim of this, we do an ad in the Festival Program advertising the anniversary, and send out postcards to members and ex-members and groups. Art would check into the ad – deadline & cost.
The idea of t-shirts was voted down.
