Old business:

  • What is our message? Are we promoting at meetings? On site? NEW SEPT FLYER THOUGHTS AND FEEDBACK about if we are now communicating groups/purpose/funds/volunteer needs.
    • FEEDBACK- HIGH BALANCE STILL CONCERN- IF MONEY STOPS, THERE WILL BE NO MONEY DOWN WAY. QUESTION- WHAT IS THE RESERVE TVAA FEELS COMFORTABLE WITH AT GROUP LEVEL? MUCH DISCUSSION- MAYBE ADD LINE ABOUT FLUCTUATES ON FLYER- MAYBE LINE ABOUT NEEDING MONEY FOR EXPANDING INTO NEW FACILITIES.

SUBCOMMITTEE IDEAS:

  • HOW DO WE LET GROUPS KNOW HOW AND WHERE FUNDS ARE USED?
  • Marketing TAC- HOW DO WE GET WORD OUT ABOUT TAC?
  • Passing funds to other committee/TVICO, Baccypa etc after the order and new treasurer report- do we want to do this? MOTION: JARED MAKES MOTION TO NOT PASS FUNDS TO OTHER COMMITTEES BECAUSE DONATIONS ARE FOR TAC BY GROUPS AND NEEDS TO STAY WITHIN TAC- KATHY 2ND ALL SAY YES- FUNDS STAY IN TAC.
