Approval of Minutes
The October 13, 2021 Board Meeting Minutes were approved as amended.
Financial Update
As of October 13, 2021 the Symphony has a net worth of nearly $35,780. Some expenses have not yet been incurred and may not be. The expenditures are dependent on if there is a public performance. The finances are now consolidated.
Venue
Currently, there is no obvious performance space large enough to handle players being 6 feet apart. Gennie will continue to look for a site. Time is getting short.

Anne Warner submitted the following report to the Board in her absence.
Below is a summary of the Symphony's membership donations as of October 8, 2021.

Regarding other groups that are meeting under the aegis of RCS, or participating in the live feed from rehearsals, I only know about Bruce’s quartet (Erin Tang, Bruce Sherman, Robbie Sherman, Reba Utevsky). They have all made donations.
