[Imc-makerspace] [Makerspace-keymembers] March Membership Meeting [March 28]

Fri Apr 8 12:17:29 EDT 2016

I would be interested in helping with some fundraising/outreach. The first
step seems to be figuring out our long term needs to set funding goals.
Unfortunately, I can't commit to anything until after Sexual Assault
Awareness Month. Maybe we can meet at the Pig on May 3rd?

RE: AMC. Jeff Putney and I are both going and already registered. The $400
was allocated to cover my expenses, but if you're planning to attend I
guess we can revisit that funding. Sounds like you aren't able to attend
the Sunday membership meetings though?
