Petey and I went to Virginia along with Oran Mor community for the FEC assembly. It was fun to be at Twin Oaks again (I did a visitor period there last year in April and had a wonderful). The FEC meetings can be kind of boring but I liked seeing how the whole process works.
Petey is the elected FEC delegate for East Wind. At the assembly they set the budget for the year. The budget is mainly to pay for transportation costs of labor exchanges and other trips between communities. The FEC’s budget is 1% of member communities profits for the year. The main role of the FEC is to help foster new communities to grow and also strengthen ties between the existing members of the FEC.
