Sat Feb 22 04:44:41 UTC 2014

Hey everyone I just wanted to give a 'Three Cheers for Makerspace!' Rah Rah
thank you to everyone that hung out, whipping up a soldering workshop for
15 people out of thin air was great, I felt like we left everyone with a
very good impression of what we do here, so, Cheers!
