Board Meeting Minutes
In attendance: Dana N., Michael S., Michael G., Nate Y., Tom H., Josh W., Alex H.
Board meeting begins at 20:00
So, Mythlogic wants their machines back. Not sure when they will do this. This will obviously affect income, also future camps, some members and staff.
- Can we move the agreement to "rent to own"? They are not really new, so let's make the case that they might want to get new ones.
- Can we aquire our own machines if that doesn't work?
- Can we wait until after summer camps to give them back?
Some machines are not working for various reasons; each machine has different specs. How much longer do we have it? Can we negotiate with the cube?
