Think Tank II Mini-Recap
Thanks to everyone who was at the Think Tank this past Saturday. We had a great time and made a lot of progress with regards to COFRA!
In lieu of a full-on recap (which I trust other bloggers there will write, right?) I'd like to mention a number of highlights.
- We developed the formal structure for COFRA, including naming a number of officers. (There are still a couple of open positions available!)
- Progress reports were given on the Fat Fifty, and we decided to retackle the project by using smaller groups.
- We came up with our second major campaign which will be getting some blog attention relatively soon - it involves video and good ol' fashioned creativity.
- We talked about the COFRA website, what needs to be done, and people volunteered to work on it (yay!)
- We also decided to look at expanding out the next Think Tank, tentatively scheduled for June, to be a weekend-long affair with workshops, and more!
We also established our first fundraising goal, which you'll hear about in the coming week or so.
The first Think Tank was devoted a little more to sussing out what should be done in order to move the movement forward. This one was a little smaller and more focused on what will be done within COFRA. Deadlines were set, volunteers spoke up, and a good time was had by all. I sincerely thank everyone for coming, and look forward to seeing you again soon!

That's a nice looking group of people up there!
Could you tell us who's who, from left to right?
Okay, I think I have this right. From left:
Back row - Tari (Tarirocks.com), Kelly (CaseyattheBat), Carrie, Andrea (COFRA web admin)
Front row - Colleen (PrettyPear.com), Mychii (SevenDaysWonder), Rachel (The-F-Word.org), Paul (No intro necessary), Paul's wife Jeani.
[Edited by Paul to correct my wife's name. Least I could do. :)]
How cool are we?! I am so glad I was able to make it, and am really excited for everything we'll be doing with COFRA.
