No further action required other than 'deep sixing' it.
*
Buddy updated the website:

*
Buddy has offered to post stuff to the website - contact him anytime about any tech questions you have.
*
Buddy posted a "How To Email Tutorial" to the main Keys To Harmony group

Joyce requested reporting from Treasures far and wide. Done ---> Treasurer's Report May 2020 - July 2021

Oh, and Kate posted a donation receipt to the KeyBiz website for all to see here ---> Files $ Aussie-Land.

Joyce wanted to have a more detailed description and expectations for the treasury roles.
Keys biz Members mostly said more definition is not needed.
The common idea is most of us trust the people who are currently in those roles therefore no further work or time is needed on this topic.

By next report I should have these links sorted and embedded here for easy linking

You may remember that we had 53 members vote in the Concepts of Service survey posted on the keyTOharmony.org website. The stats show that 92 people visited that page. That would indicate that 39 of them viewed the survey but did not take it.

KeyBiz April stats:

UNFINISHED BUSINESS

A. Secretary Position: Opens at end of May, 2021- need a volunteer to step up. Mickey considered the position at this time and declined for now . This continues as Unfinished Business. April 2021: no discussion. May 2021: Awaiting a volunteer. Joyce willing to stay on a month at a time until the end of the year.

B.. Concepts Study: March 2021: Facilitators Question posed: Is anyone on KeyBiz willing to facilitate Concepts Study discussion or meeting in another format ? Rose, Katy & BJ volunteered to be Facilitators. Not yet confirmed. This will continue as Unfinished Business in April. April 2021: Discussion as to how to possibly implement Concepts Study in a different way continues. Key to Harmony members were asked to participate in survey( x 3 ) .A very small percentage of our membership (8.2 percent) expressed an interest via the survey in continuing a study of the Concepts of Service under any circumstances, and only 6.2 percent were willing to join another email list to do so. Even fewer, 5.3 percent, said they would be willing to join KeyBiz to do so. Buddy then suggested that we table any further discussion of finding a method to conduct the Concepts study because the vast majority of our membership (91.8 percent) either does not want to continue the study at this time, or doesn't care whether the Concepts are discussed or not. Discussion will continue into May. May 2021: Discussion completed. This is now Finished Business per Chair.

New Business

A. Motion 2021 May proposed by Micky seconded by Cathy: “I formally move to put The Concepts back into the Keys To Harmony scheduled rotation.” Motion formally presented by Chair for discussion. No vote due to lack of discussion. Continues into June as Unfinished Business.
