Mon Dec 15 18:56:35 EST 2014

Hey all,

Sorry I haven't been responding. I like a lot of these suggestions. I'm heading the the space now to get rolling on set up. 

We bought beer and chips:)

See you all soon!

And then have people fill in things they want to have at the space. Like equipment, spaces(lounge area, kitchen....), workshops, outreach activities, etc.  I guess I'm thinking if you're going to donate to the space it would be a place to give feedback on what you might want the space to turn into. Thoughts?  Worth doing?
