The planning committee met to discuss past events and future plans for NUUF, for the next few months, up to the new year.

There is still work to do on getting a native American speaker for PR-B school in the fall, with a couple of possibilities in mind..... The survey from the anniversary picnic was discussed, no real changes anticipated. .....Melissa reported on the website, in its early stages. Alison will check on other websites at other congregations. ....A vote was taken on the use of the UU historical DVDs from Fargo-Morehead, and we will go ahead with one to start. There is a returnable rental fee of $25. Mary to check on use of the Warehouse, as a venue for public showings....... On Sunday, we have been invited to the Union Church in Hackensack forum, featuring Lenny Fineday speaking on native issues. We will plan on picking up the Travelin Truth Telling Tour books that day, or shortly after..... Also there is a UU workshop on November 9th at Underwood, and it was decided to use that opportunity to talk about the Resolution (once again!) and offer the TTTT for a long stay at their church.....Mary will continue to talk to Barb Beck about presenting "Gasland" at the HUG campus in the fall....
