Venue and venue contacts
New members
Other priorities
Meetings
VENUE AND VENUE CONTACTS
- The need to assign venue contacts was discussed.
- The idea that one person should do most of the negotiations was put
forward, due to last year's confusion. A local contact could be eyes and
legs for the primary contact.
- Doug was put forward as the primary contact
and MC volunteered to be the local contact. Unless someone objects to this
arrangement by TUESDAY, they will be the venue contacts
- Michelle was put forward as the hotel contact
NEW MEMBERS
AJ has a poll up just so we do things correctly
OTHER PRIORITIES
- Although actually picking tasks should be held off until we have a full
committee, people might want to keep in mind the things they would like to
work on this year ie..Doug is interested in organizing the pub crawl again
- Getting sponsors (something Fiona is interested in doing this year again)
- Advertising the con
MEETINGS
We seem to have a problem getting quorum (ie half our members)
Suggested solutions:
- scheduled meetings (so people can start scheduling things around
meetings, instead of scheduling meetings around other things on the
schedules of 9-12 people)
- agendas (this way those who cannot attend will still be able to add their thoughts to the discussion)
Meetings once every two weeks were suggested at the last meeting. Perhaps
we could vote on a day we're all most likely to be available and make that
day the regular meeting day. Also.. do we want a meeting in Oberlin?
