DSAA April Board Meeting Minutes
The DSAA Board met on Tuesday, April 8. Most of the meeting was devoted to a Board Training, in which we reviewed or organizational structure and got advice from an outside consulting firm about how we could make organizational changes to improve the efficiency of our growing organization.
As a result of the meeting, we decided to simplify our committee structure into two external committees: Fundraising / Communication and Community Issues and one internal committee: Executive Committee. The meeting minutes are available.
Our next Board meeting will be held on Saturday, May 3 at Clair Tappaan Lodge, immediately following the Free Fire Prevention Seminar.

DSAA Annual Summit Cleanup
DSAA hosts the Annual Summit Cleanup Day:
Saturday, June 7
10am
Meet at the Soda Springs General Store
Everyone is encouraged to attend this important community cleanup day. It's a great way to beautify the summit and an even better way to meet your neighbors. It's easy: all you have to do is walk around and pick up trash while you visit with your friends and neighbors.
There will be an appreciation party following the cleanup.
In addition to our regular clean-up volunteers, we are looking for people to pick up the garbage bags that are filled during the cleanup. If you have a pickup truck and are willing to spend an hour or more driving around the summit picking up garbage bags and dropping them in the donated dumpsters, we could really use your help.
Please contact info@DonnerSummitAreaAssociation for more information.
