In attendance: Jackson (secretary), Marc, Matt, Ty
Start time: 7:25 PM
- Event Review – We hosted our community discussion on right-wing cults on Saturday. We had a good discussion, but our turnout was limited to the people at this meeting! Jackson wonders whether the topic may have been too niche, but it also sounds like we had a lot of competition with other events around town at the same time.
- Advertising – We had some extended discussion about better advertising our events. There was some interest in maybe pursuing radio ads on KZUM, but we’re not sure we could afford that at this time. We also need to be doing more to cross-pollinate with other groups. And we need to get our bulletin board rebuilt out on the sidewalk, after city inspectors demanded we removed it on the grounds that it was “indoor furniture that can’t be kept outdoors.” Wyatt may be building something new for us, but there is no timetable at this time.
- Reimbursement – Jackson bought DVDs of two documentaries that we will be running soon, Hail Satan? and Gather. He spent a total of $18.43, and would like to be reimbursed. He will be reimbursed, and these DVDs will join our lending library.
