Notes from 12/4 Meeting

Love146 Boston Task Force Meeting Notes

1.4.06 Sunday 2-5:00

T-shirts: we should order female tailored T-shirts, to ensure they get seen

Grey is a good color

American Apparel has a good product for this

How to become a Treader procedure:

1. Treader signs up, pays a Treader Fee and gets a T-shirt
2. Treader gets as many sponsers as possible (at least 10) with a suggested minimum contribution of $20
3. Sponsors can go to the website and donate (we will have an up and running website and a bank account, perhaps using pay pal)
4. Paul will track what sponsors came from which Treaders and then
5. Weekly he will forward this info to us the “Treader Mentors” so we can send our Treaders weekly emails telling them of their progress and encouraging them

Action List:

Everyone: Try to enlist at least 5 Treaders each, with a verbal commitment that they will become Treaders, when we launch the program

Also, if you have already contacted a gym that’s excellent; please send all this information to Jaime (gym name, address and contact name). If you are planning on contacting a gym (and please do, if you feel so inclined), please email Jaime first and see if anyone has already been there. If you need a script to go off of, Jaime can give you helpful tips. Emily and Jenn drafted a gym letter which is posted under the document tab of the Google Group, so that you can print it out and take it with you.

Jaime: minutes, send out next meeting info, type up script for approaching gyms, contact Arwyn about setting up an info session
