Hello GTA-WWU members & friends!
The meeting this evening was very productive, and we have a couple of things we would like to update on.
We will be trying a new format for our meetings for at least the next couple of weeks. Planning meetings will take place at the usual time, 6PM on Tuesdays. We will discuss topics such as grants and communications with other organizations we work with. At 7PM, we will switch gears and focus on upcoming fundraisers and other events, as well as assigning tasks to specific people. If you prefer to attend only one section of the meeting or the other, you are welcome to do so.
We are making this change because some of the newer members were frustrated with the length of the meetings and the amount of information presented at meetings that was not relevant to everyone in the group.
Anyone and everyone is welcome to attend the 6PM planning meetings, the 7PM action meetings, or both, even if it is your first meeting. We encourage you to share your ideas of where GTA-WWU should go in the future. We are changing the meeting format so that you have the choice to be as involved as you want to be. We understand that an hour and a half is a long time to sit in a meeting, and we hope that this change will make GTA-WWU more open and accessible to new members.
We are still in the process of planning our upcoming auction fundraiser. We are looking at the last weekend in March, but this date is not yet set in stone. In addition, we will be holding carwashes again this spring. Our tentative dates as of this evening are the weekends of April 17, May 1, and May 5. Both the auction and the carwashes are great ways for new members to get involved with GTA-WWU.
Once again, we appreciate any and all feedback, advice, comments, or questions you may have. Feel free to send us an e-mail!
