Feb. 26 Meeting & Update

At the upcoming Feb. 26 meeting, we are going to have our discussion on Around The World in 80 Days by Jules Verne.  So read the book, watch one of the movies, listen to the audio book, or whatever - just get ready for it!

We have pretty much decided what kind of base materials we'll be using for the float.  It's not 100% because we are planning on not having everything go strictly to plan.  We can fill you in at the upcoming meeting.  We are still trying to determine the color(s) of the squid.  We're trying to find materials for the float.  We still have no place where we are going to build and store the float parts.  Anyone have a workshop?  We'll have to discuss this more at the next meeting.

Bring ideas for future projects and fundraisers.  We came up with a few good ones, but it's probably good to have a few spare ideas lying around.  We had a few reasons for fundraisers, including funding for the float, funding for some awesome professional group pictures, and for future endeavors.

If you take a look around you'll notice that under LINKS there are links to QAEL places on the internet (like facebook), but there are also General Steampunk and Steampunk Shopping links.  I just wanted to point this out so you don't just ignore it.  You might find something that really kicks ass.  I do recommend checking out The Steampunk Home blog that is in the link section.  It's fantastic.

I am also just about to get a new page set up with a book list.

If you are interested in helping out with the blog, let me or Jenny know so one of us can send you an invite.  We simply need your email address.

I need someone to write up a group history.  It'll get posted under Information.
