*but maybe we should have a policy?
*Adam: last party was super-awesome but super-loud and doors open - should have policy for what's acceptable for noise levels etc.
*Draft policy - what should be in it?  EBC rep present?  Paid staff time?  Deposit?  Hours (end-by time)?  Alcohol liabilities/insurance?  (might exclude a lot of things we have been doing - but can get event insurance maybe?  pricy)  David Feldman might know about this.  For future development; Steph will try to write up a draft.

**30 September 13.00-16.00
**Adam: can we try not to close BW?  Published hours --> disappointing/inconveniencing patrons. Maybe have it in the evening? Or send out email for volunteers interested in keeping BW open at the time?  It will be Women & Trans Day at both shops...
**There will be some vacancies due to board members leaving. Reminder: all directors are responsible for recruiting new directors.  '''action item''' (for all): Recruit!
