Our first ever photo campaign, Wiki Pix, wrapped up yesterday and generated
564 photos in total!
Many thanks to everyone who made this project such a success, especially
Danielle, Gaurav, Morgan, and Richard. Well done, everyone!
I look forward to meeting on July 14 at 7pm to recap and discuss next steps.

Hi NC Wiki* friends!
Tomorrow is the *last day* for submitting a photo to the Wiki Pix
campaign. We're up to *512 photos* as I write this, which is, IMO, super
impressive! If you've been meaning to upload a photo or two, now's the time
to do it!
We'll have our next meeting on *Thursday, July 14, at 7pm*. Zoom link to
come!
