Rev Kat, Nancy Lee, and Joe have gone through stored items in the Bell Tower and choir loft. The Tower has now been cleaned. Now a “more orderly” assessment of items to be stored can be done. Joe concluded that “we are definitely making progress.” The Committee’s original guiding principle for determining what to do with items is being followed: items that were not used last year, or not used this year, or not to be used next year will go to the yard sale, or donated to Goodwill or discarded. Joe’s assessment was that “progress is definitely being made.”<u></u><u></u></p><p class="gmail-m_-1498134938696259987MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt 39pt;line-height:19.046px"><span style="font-family:Symbol;line-height:19.046px">·<span style="font-variant-numeric:normal;font-variant-east-asian:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:7pt;line-height:normal;font-family:"Times New Roman""> </span></span>Nancy Lee’s Report for the Aesthetics Team: We didn’t do a lot of purging during the decorating process because we weren’t sure what we’d be using or discarding. We agreed to take inventory of what we didn’t use when we do the takedown of decorating in early January and get rid of superfluous stuff. Also, we were hoping to update the storage area in the sanctuary and make it more user friendly prior to putting things away this year. This past Sunday I happened to speak with Ralph Olander and Mike Bailey about our hopes for some shelving, lighting and storage bins. Ralph immediately rigged a hanging light in that area, and Mike said he has shelving that would work and also storage bins recently donated by someone. So we are hoping to get all that in place prior to takedown and make things much easier for next year. We think there will be room for at least Xmas and day of the dead decorations. I believe we are un-decorating sometime before January 8 or right around then.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="gmail-m_-1498134938696259987MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt 39pt;line-height:19.046px"><span style="font-family:Symbol;line-height:19.046px">·<span style="font-variant-numeric:normal;font-variant-east-asian:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:7pt;line-height:normal;font-family:"Times New Roman""> </span></span>The Committee’s next meeting will be after the holidays.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt">Music and Worship Meeting:<u></u><u></u></p><p class="gmail-m_-1498134938696259987MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin:auto auto 8pt;line-height:19.046px"><span style="font-family:Symbol;line-height:19.046px">·<span style="font-variant-numeric:normal;font-variant-east-asian:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:7pt;line-height:normal;font-family:"Times New Roman""> </span></span>Chair Storage: It was suggested that two chair dollies be restored so all chairs can be stored.
