Keith mentions the best way to raise revenue is to leverage volunteers, and the AGM is the best time to tell membership how they can best help us-- ex bike-building. Bike building is about 50/50 paid/vounteer-- volunteer should be higher. Alex and Coreen agree should mobilize more volunteer time-- but it will take staff time. And the volunteers aren't nearly so productive in that time. Do the paid bike builders really yield that much revenue over and above their salaries? Keith has looked at it in different ways and it's hard to say. For examples the hours they've all listed on bike tags only equals 50% of the hours they've been paid for. Coreen mentions that they do spend significant hours on shop maintenance in other ways | Keith mentions the best way to raise revenue is to leverage volunteers, and the AGM is the best time to tell membership how they can best help us-- ex bike-building.
