We've got our first Engage Barrie meeting of 2022 happening Wednesday evening at 5:30pm – virtually, of course! (We were hoping for in-person, but... maybe spring?)
The meeting link is https://meet.google.com/zqg-qbvz-tvt – this is the first time that we'll be hosting a virtual meeting with more than 5 people, so please be patient! If you're having trouble getting in, email or text alyssa@engagebarrie.org. (Unfortunately, it doesn't look like our plan will allow us to record the meeting, so we're unable to post a video after the fact – minutes will be made available, though.)
The Agenda is at https://docs.google.com/document/d/13jvNcL6Jh-BMaF5J33bhWY8MXqjP5RFzJkTgz3F7cxU/edit?usp=sharing, if you want to take a peek and/or have it on hand. There's a LOT of stuff to update folks on, but we're also going to start to brainstorm this year's Municipal Election, and hopefully also get a chance to discuss some ideas our members have.
Please note, you do not have to be a registered member to attend this meeting, but we do expect everyone to stick to our values, founding principles, and anti-harassment policy (TL:DR – help create a safe space for all, don't be a jerk 😀)
If you have a chance to RSVP (admin@engagebarrie.org), it'll help give us an estimate of numbers – but if you don't get a chance, come anyhow!
