S.A.F.E.Oceans Event Update!!

Hello everyone...our meeting this past Monday went well and we decided on the logistics of Sunday's event. We will be meeting this Sunday(10/29) at the Zilker Park canoe rentals at 9:00am. We will conduct the cleanup from 9-12:00pm and then head over to Chuy's for lunch. I have already spoken to Keep Austin Beautiful and they are supplying us with all the necessary materials we need for the cleanup. The weather is actually supposed to be clear and sunny that day too, so we are in luck and should not freeze on the water :) We also discussed ideas for upcoming projects such as getting our own t-shirts made, as well as stickers, calendars, etc... We also discussed making t-shirts to sell or hand out advertising our group and an outreach issue. I think hte next thing we need to do is design a flyer about our organization that we can hand out or post up somewhere. I had a number of people come up to me last week asking if we had a flyer. So we can discuss that at our next Monday meeting. Attention officers: please have your outreach, volunteer and social ideas ready for the next meeting (10/30). We will be hearing them and hopefully deciding that day as well. Other than that, I think that is it.
