(8,264 posts)but we have been less capable of active support in the past. The last few years we have seen significant growth in our membership and interest by the community. We now have a lively Peace and Social Concerns committee, and have held a number of successful community events. Our most recent event promoted coordination of low power community radio through the Prometheus Radio project and a coalition of community activist groups and for a bonus featured a short presentation by Rep. Alan Grayson. We are doing good and having fun.
As it turns out, our budget ran a surplus due to all the contributions from new members, so I had the fun of clerking the discussion of where we should contribute the surplus at 11th month MFB. Much of it went to local food banks, but FCNL and AFSC also received an additional donation.
Thanks for your service to FCNL
