MEETING NOTES 071204
and 071904
-all rolled into one-
-race
8 planning #3-4
We met at
the Rendezvous, theoretically at 6pm, as the calendar says. We
will meet EVERY MONDAY in JULY at 6pm at the
Rendezvous to plan, cuzzin it takes a village to
plan the greatest party known to human-kind. A
Lucky Strike ashtray, damn those ashtrays!, got banged too much.
In order of
appearance: 7/12--BL DJ ES (CQ DS) PJ DR DX MR with a brief AT
appearance. DX brings a huge stack of flyer #3, now complete with
start/finish info and plenty of ridiculousness. In the future we
should meet inside as sunshine and tight quarters have a
deliterious effect on meeting flow.

Day
VENUE Big Building, as last year, confirmed

ALL GOOD!
DS and CQ to speak with
BB Drew about "Green Room" (members only!)
space in the Building
SHIRTS/ART Sanmar, case price. DX
on it, with odd help from SC, AL,
CQ and DS. Everybody
want's a friggin hoodie this year, but didn't figure it
out yet. Shit seems all good then falls apart, the
continuing cycle of gut-wrenching stress ever continual.
Everybody seems to have a last minute sponsor and nobody
writes e-mail, instead relying on phone messages and word
of mouth. No doubt they can bitch later. Shirt art done
'cepting that...
Brent-water-bottle stickers again. The
fabulous new library *still* has no functional color
copier. Bastards. Did you see the flyer? Feel free
to reproduce and distribute. Pole poster party frowned
upos, inside bar postering promoted, engineered by DR
and VE

- Ducats
It was suggested that we should charge
more than the standard twennydolla for
race/beer/party/shirt, but methinks it was figured as so:
$20 at the start gets you: shirt with
YOUR number, bike bottle, river of hop-juice access,
race, big party admission
This is the good deal.
$5 at the end gets you: bike bottle,
river of hop-juice access
$20 at the table at the end (after
you've dropped 5 to come in) gets you a shirt with yours
or somebody else's number that's left over

ES PJ

Hot damn. Kettell's will be warned of Saturday morning
arrival.
