I think it's up for brainstorming. We were thinking of waiting one week until the Halloween promos and giveaways are done. At least I think that's what we are doing!

Quick question, is "Look, Chicago" going to be our name?  Or are we still thinking of doing a "name the group" survey?

Hi Group!  REI is very responsive to adding our anti-dooring message to their classes.  They also offered to let us use their meeting space if we need it - although Aaron and Katie's place seemed to work fine for me!

Thanks, Aaron! 

As a quick recap, we thought of quite a few ideas and groups to target. Our short term tasks focus on collecting additional research, pricing out options and benchmarking what other groups are doing. We will reconvene in 2-3 weeks to review data and making choices on next steps.
