Steering committee

Present at the May 15 meeting were Frank, Rick, Jeanette, Carolyn, Christi, Lou, Larry, Meiring, Fran Hogg, Steve Albro, Ginny, and Ken.  Frank called the meeting to order around 7:00PM at the South Euclid Library. 

June 5 meeting

We discussed speakers.  Larry explained about the water quality monitoring program presentation prepared by the students of Lou Rifici at Tri-C. These students expressed an interest in attending our June meeting but have not yet confirmed. 

Nominations and proposed organizational changes

Frank led the discussion of the nomination for the upcoming term and his proposed organizational changes. 

LEAF donation

We voted to provide $150 to support the Cleveland Natural History Museum Conservation Symposium speaker’s fund. The event is September 8.  The speaker would discuss research on devastation done by non-native earth worms.

Adopt-a-Beach

We voted to provide $100 as budgeted to support native plant acquisition, with the recommendation from Meiring that the purchase is for plants in containers that are smaller than one gallon.

Scholarship

We agreed that Ken should place $500 into the upcoming budget for the scholarship.

Emails with listing of volunteer hours 

Larry requested that everyone provide him with estimates of our volunteer hours, starting with last January.

Bishop Road property

We discussed options and the proposal that we work with West Creek to bid on the property.
