			I can confirm Dan's Paypal subscription. The settlement check has been sent. I have our information and passwords on the 990 that needs to be filed.

			I will have to upload later, but this month was largely the same as the last. This was the last month of our repayments for lost revenue from 6 months of last year, so $440 additional dollars will stop coming next month. But due to irregular payment schedules (not everyone pays exactly monthly) this should balance out for this months finances once everyone has paid. Still working on contacting everyone to make sure they are up to date with this month's payment.

			*Possible propane coming up from kitchen
			*Suggestion to use an air exchanger to deal with issue
			*Sent an email to members/bod with idea for something less invasive
