Replying as best I can:
1. I thought the Just Dinner was successful, and worth the effort. 
People seemed to enjoy themselves, and there was good conversation 
afterward. However, maybe we can think up something else for the Service 
Auction next time.

2. Will post Faithify campaign, faithfully.

3. Great news on the match fund!

4. I vote yes to renew on FLMR and OEC, both valuable groups. (Does 
anyone know why FLMR annual meeting was cancelled?) Probably should 
discuss MOVCA and KWW.

5. Likely we will have additional responsibilities for March 18. More 
info after W&M meeting March 7.

6. My understanding was that we requested that we have a role in April 
22 service, but maybe I didn't hear correctly.

7. MOVCA thought we might have a sister Earth Hour event. Jean Ambrose 
has talked the city and county governments in Parkersburg/Wood County 
into turning off lights in government buildings for Earth Hour. Other 
plans are not yet completed, but I think she has booked someplace to 
hold the event. There was talk of acoustic music and candlelight, but I 
don't know what else might be part of the event. *Hey, Dave Ballantyne,* 
do you have any contacts in Marietta Council that might be approachable 
on dousing lights in Marietta?

8.  ?

9. I agree, would love to visit Blue Rock Station!

10. Because OH candidates would probably not want to go to WV, Eric 
Engle, chair of MOVCA, clarified that he was envisioning *two events* on 
the same date (Thursday, April 19), one in Pburg and one in Marietta. He 
has already begun inviting WV candidates and groups. Dave had suggested 
we look for some additional nonpartisan groups to help, such as League 
of Women Voters or Marietta College groups.
Eric expressed concerns about the Parkersburg centric nature of MOVCA, 
and he really wants the group to be equally supportive about issues 
affecting the Ohio part of the MOV. Do we have anyone with a political 
bent who would help us get things rolling?
I am not very knowledgeable about political stuff, so I am not inclined 
to be an organizer for such an event, but I do see it as something 
worthwhile. If we want to plan a public event like this, we'd need to 
get started right away at inviting all the candidates. And I suppose 
we'd need to set out some guidelines about what issues we'd want 
candidates to discuss, perhaps giving them an opportunity to respond in 
writing if they were unable to attend. What do you all think?

Email discussion is good, but face to face is better. I'm OK with 
meeting March 4.
