Works for me.

Although I am not going to be there (wish I could), and am not a board member, I really think that these topics need some attention, especially a brass tacks line-item budget.  No hand waving.  It's nice to spend time in self-reflection and future goals, but practical requirements really need to be addressed if we are to survive into our second year.
 
There also needs to be a prioritisation of budget items.  If fundraising does not go as well as expected, what can we drop.  If fundraising goes better, do we roll over the funds to the following year, or do we have items that can be earmarked for additional funds if available?
 
Given the current agenda, I think that an additional two hours is a bare minimum.  Might also want to consider an 8:30 start :)

Board,

Take a look.

It feels tight on time. I spent time scheduling the afternoon but just noticed that Frank did it elsewhere. I'll leave that part alone for now, but will point out that we are not leaving enough time to discuss budget, ED responsibilities, etc., in the interest of what feels like a public presentation rather than a working meeting.

I would suggest that the public part start at 15:00 rather than 13:00 to give us time to get work done.
