President's Report

Treasurer's Report

Working through the financial statements, and producing forecasts including the new North shop has revealed a picture of financial strength that I wasn't expecting. We're performing as expected on the Revenue side of the equation, and our expenses are below expected. Of note is that we haven't ordered new parts for a while, so will probably have to restock at some point, probably spending around $4,000 to do that. Our food budget remains very high this year, as Bike building nights are spending about $10 more per week than budgeted, and several events (AGM, Board Retreat, and Board Development Workshop) have been professionally catered.
