c. 4/10/20: It was moved and seconded to move forward with hiring Paychex to do payroll and monthly and quarterly taxes. The BGC accountant feels it is a worthwhile expenditure with the changing of the board and the amount of work it takes off of the treasurer and also adds peace of mind that the work is getting done timely and correctly to avoid penalties and fines if done wrong.

Projects left to be worked on: paint numbers on the trap pads, possibly paint the container, possibly rebuild the squading board. Discussion was centered around whether we should rent a generator for the state shoot or if we should advertise for shooters to bring their own generators for the shoot.
