Thank you!
I'm so glad to have Cascadia involved. I've created a Meetup page:
And added the link to the Black WikiHistory Month
listing for February 2017
I look forward to seeing some of you there. Please feel free to advertise
widely. Let me know if you have any questions.
Yours,

Monika & all,
I would be most happy to participate in both the *Learn to Purposefully
Edit Wikipedia* on February 22, 2017 ~3-4:30pm & *Black History Month
Edit-a-thon* on February 23, 2017 3-6pm.
I would like to also have Cascadia Wikimedians be a affiliated sponsor
of*
Editing as Activism: Black History Month
Wikipedia Workshop and Editing*
at
the University of Washington-Bothell. I will also
check with the rest of
the board, but I think we will all be in favor.
Yours
