Melanie-Claire Mallison (Ithaca), clerk of Sessions Committee, reported on the participation in our 2016 Summer Sessions; 476 registrants, 106 of whom were youth. She also reported on the money raised for Powell House and the Sharing Fund ($4,781.50 from Cafe' Night, $456.29 from the Fun(d) Fair, and over $1,300 from the Tagless Tag Sale) for a total of over $6,500. Melanie-Claire led a short "call and response" and as she invoked each example of the diversity of people and styles among us, the Meeting responded, "We are here!"
