House Rabbit Network Addendum Board Meeting 5/18/2021
8 pm via Google Meet
In Attendance: Suzanne Trayhan, Dawn Lewis, Rachel Minnie, Lesley Braga, Palestina Baronas
This will be Lesley’s last meeting, though she will stay on with the Development Committee currently.
Review of Minutes: April Minutes were reviewed and approved.
Upcoming Board: Next year’s board was discussed and names were put forth for consideration. The board decided to not add any additional members at this time. Since Lesley Braga has decided to leave the board at the end of the term, it was decided next year’s board will be our 4 returning board members: Palestina Baronas, Rachel Minnie, Dawn Lewis and Suzanne Trayhan.
After discussion the Board will be putting a rule into effect that all future Board Members must have one year of volunteer service to House Rabbit Network before consideration for seat on the Board of Directors.
Review of Raffle Procedures: For all future HRN events- wording is unclear and research needs to be done regarding “raffle” and “door prizes” to be given out at HRN events. The wording for Massachusetts leaves a gray area and we will revisit with legal consult before moving forward. Until then, door prizes will be put on hold for HRN events.
Bunny Hop: On hold for right now. Possibly to be held at a volunteer’s home in August.
Cocktail event: will be passing on this for now. The Development Committee will be focusing on trivia.
Meeting adjourned at 10:08 PM.
