The 9/7/18 First Friday in September began with an Alright gang,” went Prez Bob. “It’s that time. Alright. Bill, we just had a meeting now we’ll have a real one.” Cathy said 63% voted on the small press award, not enough to earn fudge. Treasurer reported not quite $$$ with a year-over-year difference of about $$$. So we’re doing fine. $$$$ with year to year $$$.

Capclave present: Cathy said most of you were here for the Capclave mega meeting. We ran through stuff. Will need volunteers especially load in and out, registration, con suite, Courtni said she would remind people. September 28th-30. Take flyers, bookmarks, put them up at work and everywhere. We need a publicity push. Bulk of program sent to Paul. Seven of the authors/publishers of the small press finalists are coming. That’s a pretty good showing. Paul has ordered the trophy which has arrived. Tell your friends to come to Capclave. It’s awesome.

Capclave Future: Cathy said Robert Sawyer will be GoH. It will be held in October.

Capclave 2020: Bill is waiting for at least bare bones contract before he can invite guests.
