1/26/15 Minutes: Spring Calendar

In attendance: Ashley (secretary), Jackson (moderator), Ty (moderator)
start time: 7:00

1. Event Review: Trekkies was on Friday, it was fine. The turn out has been lower than usual. Should we try a different day? Jackson suggests maybe a Saturday night instead. The third #BlackLivesMatter event was on Saturday. It was mostly an organizing discussion on how to improve the events. Ashley will talk to Audrey about doing more work marketing wise, as well as adding more structure to the event.

2. Upcoming Events: The counter protest is this weekend! Ashley and Nick Gerken will be providing childcare at the house. Ty is working on a songbook, but there are potential concerns of disrupting the original protest and getting us in serious trouble. Ty is comfortable dropping the idea, since it could be a safety risk. We decide to talk about it with the others who will be protesting. Jackson contacted the ACLU, but nothing was promised. A poster making party is scheduled for Wednesday during open hours. Ty will buy the posters and will be reimbursed.

3. Paper: We are running out of printer paper. Ashley will pick some up next time she stops by an office supply store, reimbursement is approved.

4. Books: Ashley donated a pile of books from her personal collection to the library. We approve of all of them.
