I was at the meeting, but here are my votes:

YES to asking Military Families Speak Out for the Forum - and YES to them
getting the luncheon proceeds.
YES to Peace Foundation getting the SJ collection (this was the
suggestion at the April 29th SAC annual retreat, so that's not a
change....).

I can help bring food for the luncheon - the plan is for SAC to work with
Mark and bring/make PEACE PASTA salads, and other salads.....
