			* Update
			** Based on a couple sources of volunteer surveys, created more professional survey
			** Presented on demographics who are more likely to volunteer, motivations and barriers to volunteering
			** Walked board through updated volunteering survey through both streams (of volunteering and not volunteering)
			* Discussion
			** Purpose of the survey is to gather perspectives of EBC members to see what motivators or barriers
			** Survey questions should gather results that would be actionable; how would the results of the first several pages be actionable? Motivators can help to target and retain volunteers, and work to reduce barriers
			** Survey is not only designed to find volunteers. We're looking to gather information on the motivators and barriers to volunteering to get more volunteers in the door.
			** Some people may just have no interest in volunteering. Possibility of screening those people out (given no time, confidence, and life constraints).
			** Demographic questions should go to end. Ask more involved questions at the beginning.
			** Consider what final report will look like
			** Try to get respondents to tell stories at the outset to get them engaged in the survey
