<p class="MsoNormal">Attached and pasted below are the minutes for last month’s meeting. A couple things before we get to that though.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">First, if you have any trouble with these minutes, be that related to items they contain or your ability to read them, please reach out to me as soon as possible. Waiting until the meeting only delays resolution and won’t allow me to make
the changes I need to for everyone.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Second, I will not be at Saturday’s meeting, due to a course that I am attending. That being said, I will be back in February, and am happy to help format any minutes taken at the meeting.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now, on to the good stuff!<o:p></o:p></p>
