11/25/19 Minutes: Upcoming Events, Donations, Future Projects

In attendance: Jackson (moderator), Marc, Ty (secretary), Will
Start time: 7:12 PM

1. Event Review – Marc and Will went to the assembly, which went well! There was a good turnout of folks, and a good discussion of new imaginings of community. There’s also a lot of talk of alternative ways of communication. Related to that, we talked about a revival of the radio station we used to do, but that’s going to be tabled.

2. Upcoming Event – Jackson is working on getting ingredients for Ty’s curry, Will’s got mac and cheese covered, Marc’s bringing brownies. Ty’s going to arrive two hours early to start cooking. Weather might dissuade people from coming, but we’re expecting 15-20 people.

3. Donations – Thank you, Corncob Commie Collective, for the beautiful art donation! We also got new Slingshots in the mail! These are our last issues unless we email them so Ty’s going to send them an email to make sure we continue to get issues.

4. Calendars (Reimbursement/Distro) – The fliers and calendars are $12.87, Ty’s been approved for reimbursement. Will’s going to take some to distribute, Jackson will take some as well, and Brandon mentioned that they would be able to assist, too.

5. Free School – Free School will not have a calendar this December.

6. Email – Ty got an email regarding our big pile of logs outside, wondering if it’s up for grabs. Because of how fresh it is, it’s really not suitable for firewood now.

7. December Events –Marc’s going to draft his Self-Advocacy with your Doctor event, Ty will draft a description for The Living End, Jackson will come up with a description for Love Your Library, and Will said that he could potentially work something out for the Solstice Fire Pit. We need these up soon!!!

8. Zines – We’re going to work on zines! Jackson and Marc have a zine concept, a leftist primer. Jackson was also inspired to work on a zine that’s a summary of Fossil Capital, a book he’s become very enamored with that he encourages everyone else to read.

Meeting adjourned: 8:15 PM
