1. Approval of previous minutes. Unanimously approved.
2. Officer Reports.
Quartermaster - We just moved a bunch of M11 in the PreRelease. It’s too late to pre-order boxes, but people can order boxes as of 12AM Friday and still get the buy-a-box promo. We have two release events. The first is Friday evening, 6PM. The second is Sunday afternoon, 1 PM. We’re working on the fact that singles in the case haven’t been moving for a while. Hopefully once the M11 release stuff turns into money we’ll be able to restock everyone’s favorites in board games, as well as requested/pre-ordered items. If anyone would like to pre-order something, tell Lee by the end of the day on Friday.
General Manager - Events run by more than one person should have a pow-pow before they start.
Treasurer - We had money, then Wizards stole it. They claim they will give us Magic in exchange. We have enough to pay down the credit card some. The M11 will rejuvenate our sales activity.
