<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>I did not want the first thing said
after Elke's Raven's Guild announcement to be "Good, now maybe we can get back
to having our meetings at the college like the old days", even though it was the
first thing I thought. But since you brought it up... With
any luck we can start having the meetings at the college again like the old
days. I am not sure what needs to happen for that, but it certainly was
good for us in the past. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Several years ago the student center
closed a short time for remodeling and during that period someone dropped the
ball on paperwork so we lost our status as a student organization. No
student organization, no meeting room. Bad thing. Hopefully now,
with the generosity of the Guild, we can reestablish a visibility on
campus.</FONT></DIV>

stuff</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>just my 2 cents.. I would think if you/we want to find new
folks, then we would find a place new folks are at. Now, if
was me, I would have that populace at the student center, or.. golden cor..
or.. anywhere new folks might be found at. To me thats a no
brainer.. Now there are those will will disagree... and we can .. disagree..
<BR> <BR>my thoughts. <BR> <BR>populace should be the calling card
of who we are, put it on campus.. Populace is not really for just us, its also
a .. hey who the hell are they.. lets cheak them out... we walk up in
costume.. we get new folks.. matter of fact, unless its a privite
practice, or a private .. say officer meeting then.. we need be right there
out in the open. We have to have folks see us. If we do not get new membership
then we do one of 2 things.. we self perpetuate and do not grow.. and..
then die. We must have new members. <BR> <BR>all fighter practice (light
and heavy) need to be in a place that mass traffic can see and talk to.
<BR> <BR>Demos? do we have any "ins"" with the gaming/comic book
community? thats how we used to get a lot of great members we need to
get back to the on campus populace.. the ol **the walking the hall** for
membership. Thre are 2 comic shops here, I am going to start talking to them.
<BR> <BR>Did miss anything? I want new or old chiv fighters get
out.. <BR> <BR>so.. we need new members.. how do we get them, we need
lots and lots of fighters.. how do we get them.. and we need to be visable,
creative, open, and .. most of all freindly. <BR> <BR>If you agree ar
disagree thats great.. speak up. <BR> <BR>I want to see more
fighters.. Baron Brian, thanks for all your help in that area.

[Ravensfort] [rfofficers] POPULACE MEETING UPDATE 2<BR><BR><BR>

<TD vAlign=top>I liked moving it to the 8th also. This gave people
time to recover from New Years festivities.<BR><BR>As for location..I
actually thought moving it towards the Conroe area would be nice this
month since our "impromtu" business meeting was held in Huntsville last
month. <BR><BR>There was at least one member that voiced
negatively about the Business meeting being held in Huntsville.
Ironically, that person is now wanting the Populace meeting to be held
in Huntsville when it would be closer if it were moved to the
Willis/Conroe area.<BR><BR>If we hold it at the "Shop"..we can still do
food. It's called "potluck". There is also a working kitchen
to prepare the food and set up a buffet line.<BR><BR>The last time we
held meetings in Huntsville..it was done at the Golden Calf. Food
sucked and we had small turnout.<BR><BR>Since this is the New Year and
the vocalized concern for a good "turn-out"..I vote to hold it at the
shop. I believe this would be our strongest turn-out..and if I am
wrong I'll give a quarter for those that need
it.<BR><BR>YIS,<BR>Marie<BR></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR><BR>
