=== Shop Manager's Report ===
=== Co-directors Report ===
* We currently have more bikes than ever, got some from bike swap, etc. Lot of business as usual. Alex has been away. Jan came back this wk. August revenue down year over year, but last year August was anomalous. Bike builder hours may come out lower than budgetted. Still wondering about hiring for the winter-- Suzanne wants to come back, so we're happy about that-- Jesse and Jay haven't been putting in a lot hours, if they and Brahm come back for the winter we should be good, otherwise might need to hire. Did some repairs- AC, hot water, doors. Will make a rough reno plan and budget for possibly knocking out a wall in the front and getting rid of the new parts room to make more room for bike sales. Coreen will send Adam a written report with some nice reviews, to link in the minutes. Jan may put on some more classes, we'll see how much demand there is in the winter. We've soft-launched Right-to-Ride, tracking participants, running into some hiccups to work out before we start outreach or publicity (though word is getting out among the houseless, introducing some conundrums for reflection).

* Co-directors want to talk about getting a CSJ student for next summer to help with events, outreach, maybe help somehow with the Eco-Trust work. It could be used as an in-kind expense for the Eco-trust grant. There was no opposition from the board.
* Met with Dylan from CoE archives, will send him some more stuff that relates to BE and EBC history.
