Please note that the financial report that we submitted to this year’s WSFS Business Meeting is an interim report, not the final report. Thank you!

We’ve received the online donation numbers from the shelter, and Freya’s Fabulous Birthday Bash made a little bit over $1600 Canadian!

From Gillian Clinton:

Much gratitude to Tech Support for all their assistance during Pemmi-Con; particularly Richard in York 2 and the very helpful gentleman in Transcona when my workshop bumped the readings.

And btw, if you want badge ribbons made, I highly recommend getting in touch with Deanna Rose at pc/nametags, she not only gave us 20% off on our initial ribbon order, she also sent us a pack of 100 pet themed ribbons for free! Just let her know that Laurie Smith sent you 😊

From Laurie Smith:

Over $1350! That was the final total on the Friday cat rescue fundraiser! And that is not counting the exchange on the American currency. Thanks so much to all of you for your generosity and support; the Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter is absolutely over the moon!

I found myself applying Olson's Razor (if there are multiple interpretations, discard those that return obviously absurd results) in at least one case.

My thanks to Sharon Sbarsky (Site Selection Administrator), Martin Pyne (Secretary), & Lisa Hayes (Videographer) for their work

From Kevin Standlee, Pemmi-Con WSFS Head:

The video of the 2023 NASFiC WSFS Business Meeting at Pemmi-Con in Winnipeg should now be online at https://t.co/JWVL2sMM0W

[Pemmi-Con 2023 @WinnipegIn23]

Because there has never been a NASFiC WSFS Business Meeting before, I took a fair bit of time up front establishing the meeting's authority and scope and dealing with some rule-interpretation questions that people had posed to me prior to the meeting.
