JP Bikes Next Meeting

Got this in the mail today, if you live in JP you should check it out.

Good Afternoon! This is a reminder that we are having our next planning meeting TOMORROW, 12/9/08, in the Agassiz School (20 Child Street, Jamaica Plain, MA 02130) at 7:00 pm.

The agenda for the meeting is posted below, if you would like to review it beforehand. Also, if you feel like bringing snacks to share, they are always welcome. We anticipate the meeting will run 1.5 – 2 hours, and as such plan to start at 7 sharp, though you are welcome to come later if you cannot be there right at 7.

In addition, we will be looking for people who would like to take more of a leadership position in JP Bikes, whether spearheading a specific project temporarily, or becoming a broader committee leader. If you think that describes you, please reply and let us know before the meeting so we can coordinate with you, especially if you are unable to attend tomorrow.

Just let me know if you have any questions about the meeting, or anything else, and I’ll do my best to answer intelligently.

Thanks and see you all tomorrow!
