During the meeting, it was decided that the January ICES Day of Sharing would be permanently cancelled. It was also decided that guests would pay $20 for their first attendance and $25 per meeting after that.

Discussion of the October 19 & 20, 2008 Weekend of Sharing. Plans continue to be made, but currently scheduled instructors are Nicholas Lodge, Norm Davis, Steven Stellingwerf, Keith Ryder, and Joe Bushnell. Price will be determined by the instructors. Tentative registration fee is approximately $150. A possible one-day Sunday registration may be possible. The hotel choice is between Holiday Inn Select at the Airport (will be a Crowne Plaza by meeting time) and and Marriott North. Vendors are being arranged and many volunteers are going to be needed to make this a success.

Demos were performed by Autumn Carpenter (Decorating Cakes with Chocolate), Diane Dorsey (Stargazer Lily in Gumpaste), Kelly Connelly (Midi Topsy Turvy Cake), and Vi Whittington (Easy Summertime Treats).

Thank you to Sahara Katz who donated back to the ICES fund.
