Attached please find the final minutes for the July 2018 Board meeting.  On Wednesday I will put out an email request asking for approval.

Per the Standing Orders, these minutes will be posted to the web and emailed out to the list of those signed up to receive them shortly.

Thanks Mike!

As I have been saying for the last few Board meetings, we shouldn't be holding up the news of actions taken until after the minutes are approved. I know that's not your call.
It's already been more than eight days and the news is spreading by word of mouth and we are not controlling the various stories any more. 

I've already had a number of phone calls and e-mails asking what happened.  Members are interested and do care what we do and don't do.

The awards winners could have been announced two Sundays ago.   The new Volunteer Monitoring program could have had its own story a week ago after SM/OOC/OOs were notified, etc.
