[Garden] Fall term prep

[Evan Coole]

Hi everyone,

Before the Fall 09 term starts, there were a few things I wanted to 
get underway so we can be ready for a new group of action group 
members to get involved!

1. We'll be going through the usual drill for WPIRG's Volunteer 
Meeting. A member or two (or three even) will need to be present to 
represent the group in the form of a brief presentation and mingling 
with potential new members. Would anyone like to volunteer?

2. Each action group should set a date and time for a first meeting 
for their action groups to orient new members to the group and get a 
plan for the term underway . I'd recommend earlier rather than later 
as it's important to catch people before they get too bogged down in 
school work and other activities. I'm hoping to have meetings set up 
for sometime between September 22 and October 2. If you could start 
discussing potential dates, I can let you know when the office is 
free.

3. It's been awhile since the action group lists were cleared of 
inactive members, so I thought coming onto a fresh new term might be 
a good opportunity. I've compiled a list of people that have been 
recently active on the list. If you'd like to remain on the list and 
I didn't include your name, please let me know (alternatively if I've 
included your name and you don't want to stay on the list, let me 
know that too!).

Here's the list:
