Dear PNCers,

First talked about was general PNC2RNC bike ride thoughts.

*The dates agreed on would be 16-29th.  Whether to leave on the 16th
or 17th depends on scheduling.
*It decided meetings need to split up to help focus and get down the
nitty gritty details.  Thistle, Doug, Sarah-tops, and Kirstin agreed
to meet on Oct. 11th at 5pm.  They'll discuss the route, try to detail
the days events and discuss possible places to community outreach
activities as well as zine ideas
*Thistle received the dvd about the Prague bike ride.  The right now
is to show it on Oct. 19th.
*They also reviewed  possibilities or support vehicles and the fact we
made need a sliding scale to help pay for the food and such.
*There is also a desire to put on zine detailing the ride, it's
vision, and what participants can do.
*There's a woman by the name Calico that helped with the 2004 march
that wants to lead a Seeds of Peace bus to do the cooking for the bike
ride.

Next we talked about PNC

* The status of co-sponsorship from a dept. is still out.  We've
received two declines; one from the poli sci and one from the Nelson
Institute.  If we get co-sponsorship, we can move ahead and reserve
rooms in the Union and have the event open to the public.  If we don't
get the sponsorship, our events within the union would be limited to
students and faculty due to only having student group sponsorship.  If
responses aren't positive by mid oct., we'll begin looking into local
venues like the Historical Society building to host large speaking
events.
*Selena showed everyone the images/pictures she drew for the PNC.  The
sketches were very amazing and  promising.  With a few minor
adjustsments, we'll have an image to go on all our pamphlets and
flyers by Mid Oct. that'll represent the PNC !! :)  We'll have her
keep these preliminary and store them in an image folder on the
Infoshop computer.
*Milaukee Consulta: Clint, Sarah-tops, Thistle (Fri-sat) and possibly
Josh.
