3. Board Task List 2014 - choose priority tasks and taking lead on any of Interest http://soeea.wikispaces.com/2014+Task+List

Ways to reduce board member workload:
 * perhaps we create an Educator PD $upport category again, and support people to get training from elsewhere rather than us offering the workshops. Example: Prairie Learning Centre offers Wilderness First Aid. We could advertise this along with our $upport category.
 * We've been asked to organize the Wings Over Wascana school day. This is a great way to get big numbers and fits with our mission/vision. Maybe we hire a coordinator for that instead of organizing a winter festival which takes lots of board time?
