We were supposed to be tabling at Cook Commons from 1:30-2:30 today, handing out

flyers and getting people signed up for stuff.  But at around 2:00, there were

only 2 people there out of the 4 that were supposed to be.  Plus, we had no

photocopies and it was already running late.



This is nobody's fault, and that is not the point of this Email.  It was really

an organizational failure.  The tabling information was sent over the list, but

nobody followed up with the people who were supposed to be there to let them

know what's up, and whether they would be there on time.  One person was going

to be late, which is fine, but nobody who was tabling knew this because of a

lack of centralization.



So, my idea as to how to make sure this doesn't happen again is that we

designate a specific person or specific people to follow up with members about

when and where they will be tabling, and if there are any peculiarities about

the situation (going to be late, need photocopies, etc.) to let everybody else

who signed up for that time in on that information.  Also, that person could

also make sure that everything as far as table materials is on order.  We can

discuss this at Monday's meeting.



Solidarity,



Kris
