Starting at 4:00 runs into most people’s dinner hour, which requires a break and can produce an energy lag.

I know folks have a ton of things going on, but it would be great for us to have this session so Wil Sherk (President of the Delaware Grantmakers Association and the consultant helping us, cc’d here) can have the draft plan done by January 1, when Patty becomes officially our ED.
