Old Business
 
Honoring Stonybrook
We presented Stonybrook with a shadow box and a $1000 "no strings attached" donation. While we gave a give Stonybrook wanted us to know that the funds went for improvements to the parking lot.
Candle Purchase
Continues in process.  The company we order from are slow to respond, and we have been slow in our response once received.  
 
Fall Training Day
Was held and while the attendance was light the individuals that were in attendance left feeling well trained in our Media and Music areas.

December Gathering
In lieu of meeting in December we would like to plan a gathering for the board members. This will include those leaving and coming on in various positions. Kathi Herington will plan and coordinate the meeting.

New Business
Safe Sanctuary Policy
We don't have any particular policy.  Kathi will check with Nashville to see if there is a national policy for Chrysalis.  In the meantime, we will ask team to attest to no convictions or discipline by local church, also to affirm there is no reason for them not to work with youth.  We continue to remind team members to make sure they are not alone with participants.
Nashville Training
Charles Dartt suggested that when Nashville offers training that a sub-committee of the Board make the trip.  It was agreed and Ron England will keep an eye open for any opportunities that may arise.
