I am happy to provide a written report of new membership for 2017. Alex Speer will need to supplement those figures with overall membership numbers/trends. I don’t have access to that information.

Also, it would be nice if we could get a written membership report. Membership chairs used to do this, and it's nice to have more complete data than get included in the council minutes. I just got a bill for the first GSW meeting. They are not charging us the rates they indicated they would when I inquired a few months ago. I hope to get that straightened out. I also got a new quote from ANI for the liability insurance and it came out lower than last time, but I'm not sure that they realized that we are incorporated in DC, even though our business office is in VA. I'll need to look into that as well. Council should devote a few minutes to voting to authorize signing up for liability insurance.

This is in the AAAS building downtown (Metro Center): 1200 New York Avenue, NW Suite 400, Washington DC 20005. If you have items that require discussion to be added to the agenda, please submit them to me in the next week or so. Pat, can you distribute the draft minutes to the Council prior to then, so everyone has a chance to review them?
