    1/2

    NGFFL Minutes: 12 June 20127.30-9:00pm Eastern

    Attendees: PMc, Jared, Lance, Phil, Shane, Scott Letz

    8.04: Commences (Shane)

    Shane read the NGFFL mission and vision

    Shane commented that our mission and vision seem to be wearing well since they

    were written two years ago

    8.06: Gay Bowl Survey (Shane and Scott)

    Shane thanked Scott for his volunteerism on this endeavor. His services would be

    quite pricey on the commercial market

    As per Phil, we should really only ask questions that will directly serve our work,

    not necessarily what would be interesting

    How can we keep the survey short so that more people will answer it?

    Scott offered that we could filter or sort the questions based on whos taking thesurvey, i.e. captains, players, attendees, etc

    All agree

    Phil suggested that we should ditch some of the questions as to what the NGFFL

    Board should do

    PMc suggested that we endeavor to keep some semblance of a baseline question

    that measures satisfaction with the NGFFL Board

    PMc also offered that we could assume that city leaders and team captains might

    be more apt to answer a longer survey. So we could ask them both Gay Bowl

    Experience questions as well as Gay Bowl Structure questions, while asking

    participants just the Gay Bowl Experience questions Phil agreed, and pointed out that he has identified the questions that could only

    apply to city leaders and team captains

    Shane asked if Q34 gets to what Chris Cormier is attempting with his outreach

    task force

    Phil asked if we could ask if folks are interested in joining various task forces, i.e.

    fundraising, Gay Bowl, Outreach and Growth, Communications and Technology,

    etc.

    Phil asked that we contextualize the question around team fees, i.e. cheaper

    means fewer refs and dodgier fields, more expensive means more refs and better

    fields

    Everyone will build off of Phils track changes

    Shane: Should we elect at large or should we name the responsibilities openingup? The group agreed to keep the roles as at large, but that we should clarify the

    process in the bylaws. Shane agreed to draft the suggested amendment
