Vice President's Report

Has some ideas for events and stuff to be mentioned later.

XLaser mentioned the would send us another package of laser stuff, but never did. (Sharks with freaking laser beams.)

Treasurer's Report

Currently have 59 voting members so quorum is still 14 for now.

Here is the financial summary spreadsheet for Jan 2012: File:HacDC Financials Jan 2012.pdf

We added members Scott Robbins and Stephen Nichols in January. Vince was voted in but has not paid yet as far as I know - please contact me if this is incorrect! And we added three other membership subscriptions (Chalk, Hughes, and Myers) but have not voted on them as members yet as well - maybe this month? Two non-paying members, one hasn't responded and may be dropping.

We finished January almost $500 ahead and membership revenue is now >= expenses! If this keeps up, HacDC will have some resources to put into projects again going forward.
