Hello Chicago Wikimedians,
Wikimedian Thomas Shafee will be visiting from Australia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Airplaneman#Visiting_Chicago this August, and it's a great chance for us to plan a casual meetup. I've created a handy dandy doodle poll https://doodle.com/poll/qtt8wpcqmm54pdfk to gauge availability. Current time options are for the evenings on Thursday, August 8 and Saturday, August 10. The location will most likely be a restaurant in downtown Chicago. If you'd like to attend, please fill it out. I'll be in touch around next week with more concrete plans based on poll results.
If you know of anyone who may be interested in attending but isn't part of this listhost, please let them know they're invited! Please be in touch on here, our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1908906602738667/, or our meta page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedians_of_Chicago_User_Group if you have any questions or communications.
Looking forward to seeing you all in August!
Best, Brian Choo User:Airplaneman
Update: I've just applied for a $250 microgrant from Wikimedia NYC to make this meetup a 2019 Wikinic. This would cover food costs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiknic

Hello all,
Poll consensus has indicated *Thursday, August 8, 6:00pm – 9:00pm* as the preferred time. We'll be meeting at that time in downtown Chicago at Plymouth Restaurant & Rooftop Bar https://goo.gl/maps/zYfAiHj3AKbqZ81x5. Food will be covered, tentatively up to $10 per attendee (up to $150 total); drinks will not be covered. Take a look at our meetup page on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Chicago_19 for a more detailed agenda, and to *sign up* (please sign up if you think you can make it)!
Feel free to drop by or head out at any time during the meetup! Looking forward to seeing some of you there.

Fellow Wikimedians,
This is just a friendly reminder that there's a meetup/strategy wiknic tomorrow evening!
