<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>Attached is the proposal with notes captured from last night's meeting, for reference by the Award Proposal Subcommittee in prepping an amended proposal for Nov 10th. Changes and additions/notes are highlighted in yellow. Newly included is a breakdown of the cost estimate for the freeplay list, since that seemed to be a point of potential confusion and contention. 67% of the cost that was of concern belongs to the board, not to award recipients or other volunteers, which I feel is worth noting and considering whether that is a worthwhile investment if the freeplay list total is a cost concern given the most recent financials.<br></div><div><br></div><div>We did not end up discussing on-site service freeplay coupons, but I had planned to acknowledge a typo and subsequent math error in the proposal that I was going to mention when we got there, hence not wanting us to rathole on those numbers. I had intended for the proposal to be N*4 where N is the number of <b>*days*</b> in the sectional, not sessions. This nets to 3 days per sectional times 4 sectionals times 4 FPs = 48 for open, and then 2 days times 2 sectionals times 4 FPs = 16 for NLM. Total potential liability, if all are given out by the chairs, is then $640 annually. (I had ended up saying 40 in the table at the end of the doc because I was looking at days for 2018, and we ran a 2 day open sectional, and I wasn't considering NLMs.) But FWIW, I'd recommend that the NLM chairs not plan on fully assigning those so long as we're at SBC, since there's significantly less setup/teardown labor there. I also had planned to mention that these, like all the awards in the doc, aren't mandatory to give out. It depends on how many non-board members are helping out with setup & tear down. (Opinion - I think $640 annually is much cheaper and easier than hiring help to do this for us would be, and I feel that should be the metric we compare against for this particular category.)</div><div><br></div><div>Last of my two cents on this until November's meeting, although if the subcomm has questions about anything in the doc, I'm happy to answer. :)</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>JC<br></div><div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">--<font size="1"><font style="font-family:arial;font-size:small" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br><span style="font-family:arial"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:x-small"></span></font></span></font></font></font><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="1"><font style="font-family:arial;font-size:small" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-family:arial"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:x-small">JC Chupack<br></span></font></span></font></font></font><div><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="1"><font style="font-family:arial;font-size:small" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-family:arial"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:x-small"></span></font></span></font></font></font></div><div><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="1"><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-family:arial"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:x-small"><a href="http://bridgeinseattle.org" target="_blank">Seattle ACBL Unit 446</a> Secretary, Electronic Contact, & Publicity Chair</span></font></span></font></div></font></font></div><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="1"><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-family:arial"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:x-small"></span></font></span></font></div></font></font><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="1"><font style="font-family:arial;font-size:small" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-family:arial"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:x-small"></span></font></span></font></font></font></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Fri, Oct 5, 2018 at 6:10 PM Ann Romeo <<a href="mailto:annromeo@gmail.com">annromeo@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Wow .
