=== Fundraising Committee Report ===
=== Fundraising Committee Report ===
*Colin has written a fundraising plan, which will be circulated. Focus area: memberships, base operating grants (ex Alberta Eco-Trust, others), and corporate sponsorship and membership. A Communications student is starting in January. A gratitude report was finished. Casino coming up April 19-20 (Sat/Sun Easter weekend); we are signed up with a casino manager, who can help recruit "angel" volunteers. Volunteer coordination is currently Colin's responsibility-- he will canvass our membership for a volunteer to take that over-- Derek W says his friend Dominic might be interested. 43 cycling caps were ordered, netting $1k. Matt's got stickers to get a "bike-friendly business" program running. May see if employers will buy group memberships for their staff.
