[Makerspace-keymembers] Mitch Altman workshop

Fri Feb 26 17:25:08 EST 2016

I can add "suggested donation to offset room rental: $5" to the Cost
section of the FB event.  And we'll put out the donation jar during the
workshop with some pre-announcement to that effect.

I think that's a good compromise.
