Legal Counsel

There is a new insurance policy. Any covered event will cost a minimum of $100.  VPs need to decide which projects need insurance. VPs have the application. If you feel a project needs insurance, fill it out and send it to Reed. All projects need new forms. The premium is based on number of members. Any public event needs to be filed ASAP.
