Hey folks,

I just wanted to check-in regarding the meeting we hosted on Saturday. It was awesome, turnout was larger than Wendy had anticipated, and folks were very thankful for letting them use the space. It was very, very positive and rad. 

Moving forward, Wendy would like to continue using the space on Saturdays. I told her that I needed to confirm this with the collective, but that it is fine with me. 

Basically, there are two different meetings. The first one is a group tentatively called the DTES Collaborative Tenant Action Group, which will meet from 12:00 - 1:30 pm (but setup at 11:00). From 2:00 - 4:00, Wendy wants to have space for elders to host discussions or film screenings. (This second meeting will not necessarily happen every week.)

I think that these are both really exciting things to have happen at the Black Lab. Our location is really perfect for it. I told Wendy that if she is using the space there will likely be instances where we would need to cancel her meeting to host an event and she understands and made that clear to her folks as well. 

I have already stated where I stand in terms of supporting this and being a liaison for the meetings, but I am interested to hear everyone's thoughts and concerns and maybe we can put this on the agenda for our Tuesday meeting?

Sorry for the long email, and I hope you're having a lovely day!

<3

ps. Wendy also gave us a 100-cup coffee urn.
