[Occupymendocino] MMinutes of Oct. 19th meeting

[agnes at mcn.org]

I disagree, I have invited 3 people to come to the Senior Center G.A.
meeting on the first Sat. in Nov. and I can talk to Chuck Bush about the
disparity in fees. The Toastmasters and the Sr. exercise groups pay $1.00
for each attendee. There needs to be uniformity of rental fees for rooms.

Please hold further discussion on this.
