Hello Wikimedians of Colorado,
How about getting together to take stock of our activities and plan a few
small things over the next few months?
We can plan to meet in Boulder or somewhere on the Turnpike one of the
evenings during the week of 8/26 (week after next) or week of 9/2 (Labor
Day week.) Let us know what works for you.
Thanks,
Abhay

One more FAQ -
* Q: do you have to be attending the conference in order to fill out the form?
* A: nope! Even if you can't come, take the chance to highlight your group!
