Recovery
Today, we had our first committee meeting since April's IAGSDC convention, DC Diamond Circulate.
To the surprise of some, we are all still good friends and are still talking to each other. Today's meeting had more a feeling of group therapy than a business meeting, but we covered a lot of material which needed to be covered. In essence, each committee chair offered a verbal final report including their feedback of what worked, what didn't and what they'd do differently if the opportunity presented itself. We rounded out the agenda with some planning for a thank-you party for the volunteers and staffers, both within DC Lambda Squares and outside.
We'll get together again in a few weeks to finalize the party plans and to begin working on disbursing the remaining funds in the checking account. The precise amount leftover is still to be determined, but the rush of at-the-door registrations (over $14,000 worth) and extreme cost-cutting in March and April when it looked like we wouldn't meet our budget numbers has yielded a small financial cushion. A few bills are still trickling in but we hope to have a firmer handle on the numbers soon.
Then we have to start winding down the 501(c)(3) --or not, depending on what we might want to do for DC Lambda Squares.
