My suggestion is to help promote their kick-off lunch 8/15 at the Atlantis. It's a free luncheon. The RSVP cut-off is Friday. This would require an e-blast not a blog post. Just a thought.

I am just checking to see if people are checking blogs. Ping??? Anyway, Stacey- I sent the links to the community webpages for the community boards about a week after our meeting. Beyond that it will need to be a living database with a contact person for people to get help through if they want to get involved. As mentioned in our meeting, I would be more than happy to help do that. I will also stay in contact with the people below and help coordinate efforts as needed. In case anyone wants those above listed links- here they are: (Please note right now they are just links- but it is a starting place at least for info). cut and paste as needed... http://www.cityofreno.com/res/neighborhood/nabs/ contact: Michelle Anderson/ Lisa Mann http://www.co.washoe.nv.us/comdev/boards_commissions/cab/cab_index.htm~color=blue&text_version= contact: Sherri Ingley http://www.ci.sparks.nv.us/governing/boards_commissions/com_service_app/ contact: Adam Mayberry/ Mark Delatorre Great job with posting the minutes.

It represents a great chance for young professionals to get involved in a non-traditional way. There have been some discussions about businesses challenging businesses or the RTYPN challenging EDAWN, or WIN, or the Reno Sparks Chamber to a membership food drive. So there is a lot of potential for this event to have a positive impact on the community. Please tell all your friends and try to really drum up support for this great cause as well as for RTYPN's efforts to give back to the community. If you received the email about this event from earlier today (Fri. June 22) you probably noticed that it was lacking a date. As you can see from our website, the date for this event is July 18th. Please help us spread the word other young professionals. This event will be the beginning of RTYPN’s push for giving back to the community for 2007.
