Members' Nights
At the May 2018 AGM we agreed to hold some members' afternoons/nights where we would focus on the lab instead of personal projects.
sessions will be on a regular published schedule so that everyone knows when they happen
visitors allowed by invitation, to get involved and to get to know us
personal guests allowed if they help out
no personal projects, everyone is expected to be working to improve the lab
Optionally, at the start of the session we may have a meeting to make decisions that couldn't be reached on the mailing list:
Dates
Alternating between Thu 19:00 and Sat 15:00, three hours in length. Start slow with a session every two weeks, increase to weekly if we can sustain it.
Saturday 25th May, 3pm |
Thursday 6th June, 7pm |
Saturday 22nd June, 3pm |
