*NEW BUSINESS: *

*Children’s Healing Center* (Asa) in Ypsi would like us to do volunteer
activities. They have been reaching out to area groups and businesses to
see how we can collaborate.

   - We discussed this as a possible group activity, but we need to get
   more information
   - Nothing new to report as of yet.

*Spring Revel*
Simone is considering being the event steward for Spring Revel. She’ll
report back in a few meetings. Dates TBD, but April or May.


*OLD BUSINESS:*


*Baronial Website*
Aeffe (Baronial Webminster) reminds us again that the Baronial website's
refreshed look is coming soon!

   - ALL OFFICERS, please update your pages before the end of January. We
   would like a state of modernity to the content that’s currently being
   shown. Aeffe will be able to help if you need it.
   - If you want to get WordPress access to DIY, please reach out to her.
   - Please reach out to Aeffe to confirm you’ve looked at things
   - We are looking to go live in February.

*Grand Day of Tournaments*

Hannah has a proposal and the contract secured by Giovana to reserve the
date for the Monroe Co. Fairgrounds for October 24, 2026. There’s a $300
deposit to reserve the site for this date, which is non-refundable.

The payment needs to be made by Feb 5 to save that date. (Meeting 4 of 4 –
need to make a final decision on the *deposit ONLY*)

   - At this time, this is just a proposal to save this date and make the
   deposit.
   - It was previously mentioned that should we not approve this, we do
   risk the possibility of not having a site to hold this event based on the
   logistics needed
   - A reminder, we decided on a “go or no go” date:
   -
      - For an event steward and marshal in charge, we determined that we
      need to know by the first meeting in May
   - For the consideration of the site deposit for this date, this *passed*
   group approval.
