This page is a to-do list for Board Members:


  • Address hole in membership rules for visitors who are minors. Suggest letting them attend classes, but preventing using anything more dangerous than a computer keyboard without parental permission.
  • Come up with member and non-member pricing for machine time and consumables. - Let's rethink this. We don't want to end up being a job shop for other people.
  • Add procedure to membership rules for letting space out to third parties.


    • get set up on google maps we should be getting a postcard from google in the mail soon - Update: Seems I may need to resend this.


    • We need to come up with a thank you gift for the food donation. We probably need to come up with thank you gifts in general.
  • Group Order for t-shirts?
    • Who should run that?
    • Create a committee to select a shirt design (maybe encourage a vote for options)

Communications Director

  • We need to come up with some good copy to distribute to people when we want to start talking about funds. About us, what we do, etc.
  • Set up digital accounts
    • YouTube
    • Flickr
  • Setup formal "Newsletter"
    • Add folks that have asked to be kept informed but don't want to wade through the Google Group postings
      • Linda Nyholm (lnyholm@tech2020.org)
  • Also consider our newsletter to be a mailer to get in touch with the less computer-inclined folks. Direct marketing old school.
  • Webpage Updates
    • We probably need to get some sort of event registration thing integrated into drupal. Best case scenario, it even makes calendar events for us, but that's probably wishful thinking
    • We need to work on the editor to make putting pretty content easier for others.
    • Get an official page for our bylaws and the like on the page.
    • Look into setting up something where we put plans and schematics to spread the knowledge.
