'''Agenda'''

 * Annual Board Meeting:
  * Select officers for the coming year
  * Other business
 * Node notes:
  * NodePatch -- replaced the Buffalo WZR600DHP with a Linksys E8450 802.11ax dual band device, discussing adding an outdoor device on the north side of the house, MichaelRasmussen is purchasing us a GS1900-10HP managed PoE switch to thank us for networking help
  * NodeKailash -- we provided an MerakiMR24 to replace an old 802.11g router, as first stage in an upgrade of their community wireless network, along with a wall wart power supply, billed them $25 for gear.
  * NodeBuffaloGap -- they are upgrading their network again to a 2gig/100megabit service, inquired whether our gateway can handle that, Russell suggested we could by replacing the gateway and APs with Linksys E8450s (which have 2.5gbps ethernet) at $100/whack. host also inquired about improving coverage in the bar area, which would imply an additional device.
 * ARPA Grant update:
  * 8/4 meeting to discuss change order for needed entry to building on roof, additional data jacks on first floor wall
  * 8/8 meeting with LinkOregon
 * Report on call with Vancouver Mesh network person
 * Oregon Broadband 5 year action plan draft: https://www.oregon.gov/biz/Publications/Broadband/DRAFT_BEAD5yractionplan.pdf is [[https://biznews.oregon.gov/acton/fs/blocks/showLandingPage/a/14786/p/p-00d4/t/page/fm/0?sid=TV2:kwiskt1Ad|accepting comments]] until 5pm August 11.
 * Banking: Russell got a letter and new debit cards from US Bank, will bring Ted's to the meeting.
 * Calendar upate:
  * We had discussed and tentatively planned a weekly meeting on August 23 at NodeKlickitat to disassemble the last of the SkyPilots, but Russell was reminded we have a conflict that week and he: a) can't host; and b) can't attend, so different plans are needed.
 * Pick location for next weekly
 * ''Your Item Here''
