I will be asking more and more folks about this small request, can meetings be open so that people who just want to listen or view the meetings can join and listen? The non-profit I work for has 'Open' board meetings. Anyone can listen and watch, you just can't interrupt. I would also like to ask the chair and co-chair here permission to set up mini sub-social media groups as I will be asking each committee group... This way folks can be included and meet up together (form community, make friends, brainstorm and not feel alone) They may start meetings with your minutes as to gain direction. I see a lot of use for it so would like to know if this would be cool with you all?
