[Januaryfirst] Invitation to potluck THIS Sunday, March 23

[Gil]

Hey Dominic,

Good to hear from ya!

We sent the invite to the Social Housing Alliance specifically because
we've been planning sort of staggered potlucks with Rising Tide. We don't
mean to prevent good peeps from meeting up and strengthening our
connections, but this is an already packed potluck (after all, if we all
showed up we probably wouldn't even fit at the Dogwood Centre! hah). So,
can we maybe talk about organizing another potluck with Socialist
Alternative (and other groups too) for later on? While it may sound fancy,
these are really informal gatherings, and the more we have the better!

Cheers,

gil
