· Do we know of any big amounts coming out of the CIF account? Phil Taylor reported that a big amount will be going into the account

Found out about an account for the HOBY corporate board - talked to keep this separate from HOBY instead of one to 2 as it was in the past; the account was open for many years and would decide later what to do with this account; will see with the bank what the issue is with bank fees for this one; Need to figure out what to do with it – Jeff Z will call the bank to see what needs to happen to the account;
