Renee responded that she has strong commitment from three chapters (Charlotte, Hickory and Winston-Salem) to make HOBY West a continuing project. Liz asked if the thought process moving forward would the chapters out west would be the fundraisers for this. Renee responded that the plan is to fundraise, the very minimal amount from each chapter to HOBY West is $200.00, the budget calls for a couple of grants and from other organizations. Khaner asked if the plan is to have two HOBY NC bank accounts or keep it under the original. Renee said their initial thought is that if they have it run out of Raleigh and HOBY NC. Liz asked she has a couple of dates in mind for drop dead dates? Renee responded that they’ve talked to three universities for pricing quotes and will have all quotes in by Friday, they aim to have a date and proposed site in place in the next two weeks – the next date for CPG approval, she thinks it would happen in September instead of October – February deadline of deciding overall to continue is a fair deadline, it gives the East enough time to scramble if they have to. Teresa asked which colleges they have contacted: Salem College, Wake Forest and UNC-Charlotte. Motion passed.
