[Makerspace-keymembers] Makerspace Urbana needs expansion plan commitee

[elizaBeth Simpson]

Hi folks,

Let's have the expansion meeting and then figure how to go forward with
this question- I'm actually not sure how much of the expansion effort is
going to be not about fundraising...

Certainly MS needs specific attention on PR/outreach/FR anyway, which is a
part of pretty much everything that gets done, but it may be that,
time-wise, this can be integrated into pre-existing meetings or via the
emailz.

I can put a bunch of energy into this before school starts, so in a way,
it's not the same people, because I haven't been part of the other
meetings, and I might be able to get someone else involved. We only really
need 3 people (though more is great). My suspicion is that part of the
reason we have the same folks is that we ask the same folks (I could
totally be wrong here!) so maybe one of the first things is brainstorming
who else could be asked to be on a temporary committee.

Meanwhile, if peeps would glance at the new doc in the makerspace g-drive
and add stuff sometime in the next week, that will go a loooong way.

See you soon,

elizaBeth
