Tulip Pin Board at Brush Creek going very well – discussion was had regarding putting similar displays at Spring Lake and Oakmont.
Art Rosenblum advised the Board that the Unitarian Universalist Congregation, Santa Rosa was making a $400 donation to PSGSC through their “Share The Basket Program”.
3. Suzanne mentioned the existence of a possible “significant donor” who might be willing to fund a PSGSC project and wanted to know how we would use the donation. A lively discussion ensued, with Dana May raising the possibility of the PSGSC funding an office for a visiting movement specialist.
