Caretakers of the Meeting are usually a couple selected to maintain all the ongoing weekly needs of the meeting house. They live in the building, act as the liaison to the public for the meeting and buffer all of the many small emergencies that any century old building will encounter. Officers of the Meeting include Presiding clerk, Assistant presiding clerk, Treasurer, and four other individuals who constitute the Records Committee: the Recording Clerk, Statistician who keeps records of memberships and marriages, the Archivist who maintains other Meeting records, and the Web Page Clerk who maintains our Meeting's information on the World Wide Web.
