The meeting focused on planning for this year's camp, covering several key updates and challenges. The group discussed ticket purchasing extensions due to current global uncertainties, with tickets now available until the end of the month. Kyle shared that he will continue as artist liaison for approximately 60 registered art sculptures and 5 honoraria sculptures, while the camp will be hubbing with New York Delhi again this year. The group extensively discussed meal plan management challenges from last year, particularly around tracking who should receive meals and ensuring compliance with health department regulations. Filchy explained plans to transition from solar panels to a rental solar power system to power the camp more efficiently, which could help resolve storage and trailer space issues. The meeting also covered website restoration efforts after the previous system was lost when a credit card expired, and the group agreed to move from weekly to bi-weekly meetings going forward.
