In Attendance:

Voting:
-A quorum was reached for the online voting for the officer positions and all candidates were voted into their positions; however Megan Baumer will no longer be working at WCS come the new year, so there is currently an open secretary position.
-If anyone is interested in filling the vacant secretary position please contact a current officer immediately. If one person steps forward, then they will fill the position; however if more than one person steps forward, then membership will vote online to choose the next secretary.
-Sara Parker is interested in filling the position.
Silent Auction
