Director Reports

Treasurer's Report (Tim Slagle)

Here is the July 2011 financial summary: File:HacDC Financials July 2011.pdf

We came out a bit ahead in July due to additional member donations, the robotics class ($200), and $344 in cash collected from the tip jar. Membership revenue are still $600 short of our expenses so thanks to the generous members who are chipping in extra. We ended July 2011 with a reserve of about 2.5 months expenses.

In July, we had 43 paying members, three non-paying members, added two new membership subscriptions (Bjorn Westergard & Stephen Beuttel), and lost one member (Alan McCosh). Shahar Goldin also reactivated his subscription and chipped in for a missing month, so thanks and sorry for announcing his departure prematurely!

I found we were paying $6/mo for a fax service we were no longer using, so I cancelled it. We should have a plan for asynchronously receiving faxes - Google Voice?
