Anyone is welcome to join. Recaps/discussions of events past and upcoming and any ideas/issues you have to discuss will be covered.Being a week from the picnic/ConZero I imagine there will be enough discussion to make it worth treating as New Business.
Any more topics people feel should be added? There will be time at the end if you have any smaller points to add as well.
For events, add to new business:-- MNFurs Photography Head--
Want a Photographer at an event? Want to help out with Photography at an event? PM me!
Also remember to add department updates.~ Drake M.
