-Muk reported that regularly used Agile and will have to see how ARCTIC works for him to determine whether it will meet his scientific needs. The larger FOV of ARCTIC will help, and the detector is more sensitive so he could go to shorter exposures. He asked if ARCTIC's timing is sync'ed to a GPS; the answer is no and it would not be straightforward to implement that. So the absolute timing for ARCTIC will not be what it was with Agile.+Muk reported that he regularly used Agile and will have to see how ARCTIC works for him to determine whether it will meet his scientific needs.

 APO will once again have a booth at the January AAS meeting; in 2024 the meeting will be in New Orleans. We hope that many 3.5m users will present results enabled by observations made at APO, and that we can get some help staffing the booth. More details to come next month. APO will once again have a booth at the January AAS meeting; in 2024 the meeting will be in New Orleans.

-Nancy reminded everyone that 2024 will mark the 30th anniversary of operations at APO and the 3.5m. In 2014 there was a big bash at the Visitors Center, which included science talks and many of the founding members coming back to visit. In 2019 we held a strategic planning meeting, in conjunction with a 25th anniversary celebration dinner. Do we want to do anything for the 30th anniversary? Joanne reported that her Dean came with her for the 20th anniversary event and it was very successful, enabling her to become a leasing partner. Misty attended both of last two celebrations and thought it would be fun to do more of a party (like in 2014). It would be a great opportunity to show off the facilities, particularly if we could get administrators from the ARC institutions to attend. Derek agrees. Kevin didn't think that JHU would attend such an event. Chip shared UWY's experience of the WIRO 30th anniversary celebration; he thought it was a good celebration event and it helped administrators to see facility. He made a video that he continues to show as needed; Russet thought this would be a good opportunity to update our out-of-date videos.+Nancy reminded everyone that 2024 will mark the 30th anniversary of operations at APO and the 3.5m.
