Hello guys,
Please find attached a circular distributed by International SOS on all you
will need to know about Ebola. We all should be extra cautious now as the
virus is suspected to have reached our shores. Please share as widely as
you can.
Hope to see you all at Blogcamp on the weekend.
Regards,
Dela

I wish to draw your attention to the activities outlined for the rest of
the year. I promised fun and lots of goodies for the rest of the year
right? I am a man of my word so just a little advice for y'all, stay tuned
and active for the rest of the year.
The only reason we continue to exist as a group or a community is solely
dependent on the total number of edits we possess as a group. It is
therefore mandatory for every existing member of this community to report
how many edits they are able to obtain weekly. Statutorily we expect each
member to report a minimum of 3 edits a week, it could be an edit from any
Wikimedia project (from Wikipedia to Wikimedia Commons). Emphasis on edits
please! It's your only visa for a continual stay with us. Please find the
form for regular end of week edit reports below.

We would be holding regular meetings once every quarter, thus 3 regular
meetings till year end. * Partnership* with *Barcamp Ghana* to ensure our
presence at every Barcamp event to be held, this will entail two volunteers
each time at a Barcamp event to host a breakout session on Wikipedia. To
help us do this, we will need you all to fill the form below indicating
where you live so we can connect you with upcoming Barcamps in your
locality. This avenue will help us reach out more effectively and aid in
recruiting members

Monthly trainings will be held via the mailing list. This may come in the
form of an email sharing tips on a particular tool and (or) a proper
presentation document of the tool or topic. Anybody could be called upon to
do this, don't be scared it's just an avenue to learn; besides you will
have a month to prepare. Regular competitions will also be held via the
mailing list. This will usually consist of a task after which a prize is
awarded to the winner.
We look forward to climax these years' activities with a major edit-a-thon
event on the 21st of September, 2014. The day which is dubbed the National
Volunteer Day by the GhanaThink's Ghana Volunteer Program is a better
platform to call on more hands (volunteers) to ensure a substantial number
of edits on the day.
Watch out for some magic days ahead, I promise it will be fun:-)
Cheers,
