The board thanked everyone and the board members were in turn all lauded by those in attendance for their good work for the community and the organization.
After setting aside funds for tier for the Second Pride sim for the coming year and some petty cash, there will be roughly US$1,000 for the board to donate to charity. The board is considering donations to either The Rainbow Railroad or The Human Rights Campaign Fund.
The biggest surprise was the news that the whole board is stepping down, every single one of them. All the positions will be open for the election of new candidates.
The election timetable is as follows (all dates are of course SLT).
- August 1 - September 3, 2017 - The Second Pride Festival group is closed for new members until the end of the election.
- August 7-20, 2017 Call for candidates.
- August 20-26, 2017 Question & answers period
- August 27 - September 2, 2017 Elections
The election committee will be headed by LLedge Eames as the outgoing chair.

UPDATE 8/13/2017
Lee MacKay, the current webmaster for the Second Pride website, in a comment on Google+, informs me: "It's also very important to note that anyone wishing to participate in the Q&A portion of the election process MUST create an account on the website to do so. The Q&A will take the form of comments beneath each candidate's statement, and a working, verified login is required to post or reply. This applies to the candidates as well, of course. - SP Webmaster"
