Hello Team,

Welcome back all. I hope your summer was enjoyable, remotely safe, and  
didn't go by too quick. Just wanted to run over a couple quick things  
as we get settled back into this school routine.

First off, this should be an exciting year, with a different approach  
to "getting it done" than last year, so I'm hoping you are all ready  
to help out. Please let me know of your expected involvement with a  
quick email, and that will also insure that you stay on the listserv.  
As I did last semester, I'll be "cleaning up" the listserv to remove  
any members who aren't interested in working this year. So, I'll give  
you until this Thursday, 9/4/08 to respond. After that, I'm yanking  
the plug and you'll be out of the loop - severe work to be done for  
those that are removed and change their mind later!!! not.

Moving on, still working out a couple of logistics (conflicting  
schedules and other involvements) but we are planning for a meeting at  
the start of next week. We generally get a better turn out after kids  
read posters/signs for a week and learn about the club, rather than  
doing it the first week of class. Keep your eyes open, and look for an  
email later this week with the official day (most likely Monday  
evening).

As I mentioned above, and without getting into great detail yet, we  
are working on somewhat of a new layout/approach to the team. With  
more experienced members than last year, and more experience under us  
older members' belts, I think we can have a very successful year,  
while having a good time doing so. I'm not going to list any yet, but  
we will have more of an official breakdown on the team this year.  
Individual task leaders essentially, in charge of their on  
responsibilities. Of course they'll be working with everyone else, but  
it will be their duty to stay on top of that task, and ensure its  
completion. At this time, if there is any aspect you think you would  
like to be more involved with, or in charge of, please let me know. I  
have some rough ideas in my head on who I think would/could do a good  
job in certain positions and I'll pass those on to you this week, but  
an idea from you would be good first.

Again, please respond by this Thursday about your anticipated  
involvement with the team, so we can move on from there.

Thanks for reading, and I look forward to seeing everyone soon.

Mike

Think before you send!!! By hitting reply, you will reply to the ENTIRE listserv. If you wish to send a personal reply to the orginal poster and NOT the entire listserv, copy and paste their address and compose a new message.
Save yourself the embarrassment and think twice!
