- New Business (5 min)
Rachelle brought up the fact that storage is a limiting issue for the preschool. The board brainstormed moving the chairs and tables out of the back room so preschool items can be stored there. It was suggested that we move the chairs and table in the corner of the meeting room. We would need a rack to hold the chairs. There is currently a big, heavy table in the corner that Melissa will try to sell on Facebook/Craigslist.
We will discuss more at the next meeting when the other members are present.
