Honestly I'm surprised more people aren't jumping on these ideas. I suspect the issue is fatigue. That's fine; that's why I'm here.

(This is getting handled by other people)

• Lights: Replace the neons with LEDs and tie them into the main lighting system
• Replace the fluorescent lights in the organ chamber with LEDs
• Clean the high surfaces
• Resurface the chancel
  • 3D print some feet for the choir risers so they don't scratch a new floor
• Hanging choir mics*
• Acoustic treatment on the back side walls, which are currently very naked
• Get the organ fixed
  • The console needs to be taken apart, cleaned, and put back together. It's a few days' work with some kind of nasty chemicals, or we can ask an organ builder to fix it.
  • The physical pipes do not currently sound. Having those stops missing is annoying when playing.
  • We do not currently have a working relationship with any organ builder.
• Replace the little stick for opening the piano
• The pull handles to get into the sanctuary need to be polished (I think?)
  • I'm sure there's a lot of other “elbow grease” stuff I don't know about or haven't noticed.

We need more data before we can intelligently choose hanging mics. Gathering that data is a non-trivial project; I will need some A/V and choir and musician hours allocated to get that all squared away. Details on mic-party
