Official Organizational Meeting
Jon Lesser
official organizational meeting. This will have to be a somewhat
formal meeting because things decided at the meeting will have legal
implications. We're all more excited to get into the space and start
creating, but we need to get this stuff out of the way.
I'll mail out an agenda before the meeting this time, but at high
level, what we need to do is: officially confer membership on people,
ratify the bylaws, and elect officers.
The first step is to figure out a time on Thursday, Friday, or
Saturday and a place. A Saturday brunch meeting, say 11am to 1pm
sounds pretty good to me (I'd bring the cereal, cantaloupe, and
coffee), but I'm very flexibility. For a place, we need someplace
quiet and accessible.
Options:
- Conference room at ETC (http://bit.ly/PNh6L). I haven't been there,
but I hear it's available and free
- Poe room at Enoch Pratt (http://bit.ly/2iZ9t). Free for non-profits
for upto 4 hours.
- MICA (113 North Ave.) Quiet and nice, but public access is not the best.
- 2640?
Thoughts?

ps. People have been asking about how to pay dues. An online option is
in the works. Details for paying by check or cash coming soon.

Plenty of parking in the parking garage after 5:00pm on the weekdays
and free on the weekends. The room is quite nice and large and we can
do presentations easily. Also there are plenty of little spots for us
to get drinks or food or what ever if need be. Question though are you
talking about this saturday or next saturday? Because this Saturday
will be insane to get anywhere in Baltimore because of Otakon and
Artscape.

What does one need to do to reserve the ETC room? Is there any cost?

9pm this Friday, the 24th.
The address is 2400 Boston St. Alan says, "The entrance is a bit hard
to find, it says 'ETC' in a very subdued way. Here it's marked exactly
with green arrow: http://bit.ly/EE2vD "
We will try to move through the bureaucratic parts as efficiently as
possible so we have some time to talk about fun things. I'll send an
agenda out tomorrow and bring some fluid refreshment on Friday. This
would also be a great time to bring a check for August dues.

Also, the donation box is now live on baltimorenode.org. You can pay
dues online with this box or bring cash or check (made out to
"Baltimore Node") to the meeting on Friday.
