October Meeting Notes

On Monday evening we talked a bit about RDW's direction and process.

We asked the question: "What do we want the Ridge Democratic Women to be and to do?"

Our brainstorm list was pretty full, and we found that there was a lot of agreement and consistency in the responses. There were some specific details and some more general thoughts, but over all, we generally agreed

- to advertise to let people know about our meetings
- to be an informal group
- to have rotating facilitators (volunteers, of course!)
- that we'd like to become a "known" entity in the community through our actions

After this big discussion, we added to the brainstorm list of possible actions we could take, reviewed many upcoming events and meeting dates, and spent a significant amount of time sharing ideas, information, plans, and stories.
