Hey hey fellow P.E.A.K.ers!,

 

For everyone that was able to make it out last night, a huge thanks goes out to you!!! I think we have the makings of a really solid group, and I'm excited for all that's in store for the rest of the semester. If you were unable to attend, but are still interested in being active with P.E.A.K or just need to recap, notes from what was covered in the meeting last night and things we will be working on are provided. We have a lot of awesome on-going projects and events this year (see below), so find your name in the working groups or browse through and see if anything strikes your interest. Contact information for everyone in each group is provided in an attachment. We need to get started on research, brainstorming and having things happen, so please get in contact with your group members A.S.A.P!!!! But before you do that, here is the link to the doodle.com schedule databasing site. Please fill out your Monday through Friday general schedule (don't be confused by the dates, I think they're for January) so we can hammer out meeting times and dates that best accommodate as many folks as possible.
