    • Total active members 390
    • James is pulling member counts daily, and will provide link to this info to the committee
  • Scholarships
    • Currently we have 3 scholarship members (2 6-Month and 1 Monthly). These members have not gone through orientation, and therefore not really active members
    • We need to discuss with finance to see what funds there are for scholarships
    • Currently there is no active scholarship committee, so control and review is falling on Membership Committee
    • Discussed requirements for eligibility … maybe teaching classes or volunteering
  • Member Communications
    • Joe Pajor has been given read-only admin access to WildApricot so he can follow up with members
      • Follow-up will be done for new members who have not went through orientation
      • Will also follow-up with members who have lapsed memberships to see what reasons we are losing members and see if we can resolve the issue with them
      • Possibly reach out to Maker Monday attendees who have not joined yet
      • Eventually may reach out to existing/badged members who have not gone through orientation
  • Recruiting Brainstorming
    • We discussed possibilities on how to bring in more members
      • Recruitment Events geared towards specific companies/groups
      • Carnival/Festival like Fall Fest, Watermelon Feed, Ice Cream Social
        • If we do any event we would need to search for sponsors and donors as we do not really have funds to cover costs
        • Reach out to other committees and areas to put together festival attractions
    • Area leads offering events
    • Ren Faire (Renaissance Fair) Sept 25-26 https://www.greatplainsrenfest.com/
    • Jai will work on listing with Wichita on the Cheap as well as continue to post on KMUW Event Calendar. Would really like Communications Committee to run with this.
  • Tri-fold Pamphlet
    • We still need to finalize this and get it printed
    • Possibly put out the current pamphlet and go back to redesign before printing more
  • Maker Monday and Orientation Format
    • Had a good discussion with James regarding the current format and possible deficiencies. James will work on documenting his concerns to provide to the committee for further review.
