=== Alberta Bicycle Commuters Conference, Karl (10 min)===
*Discussion notes: The 2016 conference will be in Canmore this Fall. Should EBC send a delegate to the conference? Karl feels we should send a cross-section of our staff and board members to engage with the provincial organization. Maybe there is some way to put some prize behind it to get people down there? Are there any advocacy based grants that we could apply for to help get travel compensated. It would nice if we could sponsor a few volunteers to go to the conference and possibly recruit new board members.

Action Item: Karl to determine the specific 'ask' from the Alberta Bicycle Commuters. Last year we recieved one free registration, we donated $500 last year and allowed $500 for registrations. Tickets will likely be closer  to $100 this year.
