	** Chris Ch: Group may be having difficulty with their primary arts funder. We should probably consider resources (vs. funds) to support them, eg. Bike-A-Friend-To-Work Day (corporate challenge type of event), which would also be in line with our own mandate. Megan: Do we have the volunteer resources to support them? Chris Ch: Not really. We put out the call for mechanics for their events and general volunteers but not much success. Leila: Agree with Chris! Partnering with them seems most valuable. Sarah: Will the support (new event) help Bikeology since they have identified they are already struggling with current events? Chris Ch: Details are in my Jan report. Talked to Karly. The event is our priority and mandate. The event will have costs (staff time, resources, etc) so that value is going to Bikeology. Dont expect that this event will happen in 2014 but certainly for 2015. Contributions (prep for event) will certainly be in 2014. Sarah: Could we have more public presence at Bikeology events in 2014? Chris Ch: If Bikeology wants EBC signs, this probably wont impact their success. If Bikeology wants support on their balance sheet, this proposal of the event will help. Caylie: Could we have a pared-down version of the event in 2014 to show (public) commitment to supporting Bikeology? Chris Ch: Would be a different event if it was smaller. Megan: It is ok not to fulfil other organization's hopes and dreams. We will be busy at the shops this summer. If we have a realistic commitment to support for 2015, that is probably more valuable to them. Leila: Stretching our volunteer or funding resources is in our best interest this year. Our existing $5k contribution is substantial. Steve: Vancouver version of Bikeology ([http://velopalooza.ca/ Velopolooza]) has a budget of $7-10K for a 2 week festival. Chris Ch: As I understand Karly's request of EBC, it is that they are having trouble with funding because their money comes from one significant group who seems to be pulling back. They seems to want help in balancing their financial statements to show that they are healthy.		** Chris Ch: Group may be having difficulty with their primary arts funder.

			** Update: Clarification from Chris on his points above...
			***Velofest Edmonton League & Organization (VELO) currently gets most of its support from Edmonton Arts Council (EAC).
			***EAC looks at VELO's financial statements, which includes in-kind contributions, and sees that most of VELO's support comes from EAC.
			***EAC doesn't want to see that. They want to see that EAC is just one smaller part of VELO's budget, not the only major funder. EAC doesn't want to be in that position.
			***VELO needs support from other organizations so that the proportion of each individual funder (specifically, EAC) is smaller.
			***If EBC contributes to part of a project of VELO's (e.g. Bike-a-friend to work day), VELO gets to record all of those contributed resources (our staff time, any volunteer time, and any actual spending) in its own financials. If we find other sponsors to help support this project of VELO's (through time or money), they get to add that to their financials, too.
			***EAC looks at VELO's financials next year, and sees that EAC's financial contribution (which hasn't changed) is no longer the majority of VELO's financial statements, and this makes EAC happy, so they continue to contribute in subsequent years.
			***This is really largely a numbers game. My feeling is that if we're going to play the numbers game, we may as well use it as a chance to do something with great potential to be very effective and even self-sustaining.
	** Kristen: Given we just approved the updated the BWS budget, we should probably hold off on additional funding requests.		** Kristen: Given we just approved the updated the BWS budget, we should probably hold off on additional funding requests.
