For those who weren't there on Tuesday, we had a great "informal" board meeting. Erin Reshke and Todd Kelly came to pitch us some ideas about our fundraising party. Basically, Todd had an event set up already and he said we could raise the cover price and keep the proceeds. He was just looking for a non-profit to benefit from his largesse! Also, we planned to have an after party following his event to raise even more money. He has the spaces lined up, he has the artists, and he will provide the lighting and sound equipment. All we have to do is get liquor, a license, art and publicize the event! We were all really excited at the meeting and most of the difficult work has been taken care of for us already.
Meredith will work on getting a one day liquor license. Lisa and Wendy will work on a logo and statement about Alchemist to display at the event.
