Hello Board and observers,
First, I mentioned last week that the League has devised a new method of local review that is anonymous and less of a commitment. We can choose how we'd like to distribute this link. Please check it out here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MorgantownBFC
Any person who spends time in our community, including folks who worked on the application, can submit this survey. The League says we will not be penalized or rewarded for a large number or small number of responses -- we only stand to gain from more diverse input than we usually receive. They will likely use quality feedback to choose an award level, however. "This survey is to provide context while we are deciding an award level and to, hopefully, provide valuable feedback to you in your community’s Report Card and Feedback Report."
Also, we've got a meeting next week as per usual. Please review the attached agenda and open action item list. We're shaking up the meeting format a bit this month -- there's less than an hour and a half of time scheduled. We will at least begin the process of budgeting our discretionary funds for 2016 at this meeting -- please think on this and come with specific thoughts on how we should appropriate the funds.
Ride on, Drew
