Administrative  notes:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Start:  7:00 pm; End:  8:30 pm.  Present:  Jeff Poore, Andy, Rachel,
Kevin, Yale, Joe Kuchta, Bridget, Kate, Gilbert, Ping, Ezra, Dave

Officers'  reports:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SVP (Barbara): [written report] I haven't gotten any definite com-
       mitments out of project sites but the National Braille Press and
       Sojourner House are interested. Please take messages from the
       office answering machine for me.
       I've got Andy, Gilbert, and Elth to PC City Days and open
       projects. Kevin , Dave, Hannah, and Ezra took over Book Ex-
       change, President's Reception, Reg. Day, and Chapter Weekend
       I respectively. Thanks too all of them. But I still need someone
       to PC the writing requirement project and other projects dur-
       ing the term, as well as looking into the possibilites of halloween
       projects.
       Thanks to those who filled out my survey. It's still in 
       /mit/apo/Officers/SVP/questionnaire.txt if you missed it.
       I want the information on the SVP files verified, recorded online,
       and printed out to be put into file again. Would any one be able
       to help or have any other ideas?

Meeting:  The SVP files are not something that need to be shared and
       you need a phone next to a computer on the net to enjoy the
       benefit of having them on-line.  It's more important to update
       them.

AVP (Gilbert): Will clean up APO locker soon.

Treasurer (Kevin): I've closed the books for my term and am ready
       to pass things off to Henning. We were in the red last term but
       only by $25. That's after we bought a fridge, had $103 stolen,
       and spent money on resurrecting siklscreening.

ASC (Traci): [written report] I'll deliver the twine, tape, and garbage
       bags that have been requested shortly. Email me other requests
       if any. Thanks to those who helped when the floor was waxed.
       I'll arrange some cleaning/organizing party when I come back
       (after the term starts.)

Committee  reports:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kevin (Book Exchange):    We have a committee:  Amy (publicity),
       Jeff (manpower), and Lily (treasurer).  We had a meeting and
       interested in keeping the office open for some set hours before
       and after book exchange to make dropping off books and picking
       up checks more convenient. It will open Reg Day (9/6) and run
       through 9/13. Sell books!
Kate (Press-Op):  We have blanket wash now. Nothing going on with
       flammable cabinet though.

Old/New  Business:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MVP  (Dave):  Put pledge manual first draft on coffee table and
       /mit/apo/Manuals/Pledgemanual/manual.{tex,dvi,ps}.  Please
       read it and give me opinions no later than Monday night. Need
       help with poster design, distribution (got Ping), drop poster
       design (got Bridget), and IC panel. Open meetings will be tra-
       ditional but open to change.

Bridget:   Ask the historian to help choose and convert pictures to
       slides.

Ezra:  Do a rehearsal for the open meetings.

Yale:   Write down a list of topics that need covered and make sure
       that they are covered at rehearsal.

Kate:  Activities Midway is on 8/30. Have slide show ready by then?
       Decide what to give away, and how many, what other things to
       bring [like WUAPO's, APOC's]. Decide whom you want to be
       there to do what specific tasks. Think about the board behind
       the desk.

MVP (Dave): Will need to think about pledge meetings' contents and
       how to keep pledges in touch. Other things: calling prospectives
       and have brothers recruit; push big brother/little brother pro-
       gram around time of open meetings. Let me know if you want
       or don't want to be big brothers.

Kate:  Dave can't make Pledge Term Review Meeting on 12/3. Let's
       propose to move it to Sunday 12/4 2-6pm.  I'll bring it up at
       chapter meeting.  We might even add a service project on Sat.
       12/3.

Announcements:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ezra:  Chapter Weekend I will be "Mass Jam" at a scout camp prob-
       ably at Barnstable (1.5 hrs away) in October.  We'll create a
       scout related activity.

Joe:  "Scout related activites" include registration, judging events, and
       keeping scores.

Yale:  Ask brothers from elsewhere (like mid-west, the south) to help
       think of scouting events.  Science projects won't be liked.  The
       event needs to last for about 20 minutes but be repeated 50
       times.  Ask the National what material they have, what need
       and need not to bring, and how much funding we have.

PFTGOTO:
~~~~~~~
Barbara:  Thanks to all my PC's.
Kevin:   I was going to organize a Red Sox outing, but Red Sox is
       going on strike! Come see my "Rising of the Moon" at 8pm on
       Monday at Middle East - only $5. Please leave at intermission
       because the second play sucks.
Kate:   I'm leaving on Friday for a week-long vacation!  Thanks for
       coming.
