Mary resigned as chair, but is going to stay on for the year. Mary is reorganizing the committee and getting the calendar for next year set up.

Walter’s report – wants the community to figure out where to plant the peace pole. Enjoying his summer at camp. Feels the energy of church is improving.

Other business – parking on 31st has changed. No parking except Sunday morning, 8-1. Fairview lot  (on 16th ave) is likely going to be available for our use, pending proof of our insurance. We’ll have to clear snow in the winter.
