The total request is $740. This is about the same as the original shed cost! I'm sure there are other things, and if any come up to a large sum, I'll be sure to approach the board again. There will be a forthcoming request for funds for the low-light lab, but I must confer with Toni and others on this before we can work up a proposal. We have has some ideas about making a dome-like structure to support the shading material.
