This document discusses the Renew MO Intern Prez organization's financial reconciliation efforts from 2011 to the present. It notes that past financials were inaccurate, so efforts were made to reconcile finances in Google Spreadsheets. Current financials from 2011-2013 are stored in Google Docs spreadsheets. The document also discusses future plans to consider accounting software like QuickBooks to automate financial reporting. It provides an overview of the ARM renewable energy conference, including committee members and potential topics and speakers.

Monthly financial reports: “Date Incurred”
