Hello,
This eMail is mostly being sent as a reminder of the seed meeting this evening October 2 at 6pm for a potential new community bicycle organization in Ithaca. We will be meeting in Room C of the Cornell Cooperative Extension building at 615 Willow Avenue. We are very lucky to have Michael McArthur facilitating the meeting. He has reworked the agenda which is attached. He would love to receive comments and ideas about it before the meeting if possible (his number is 273-0365, or eMail [email protected] ). He also plans to be in the meeting room at least 20 minutes before the meeting. Again please forward this to interested parties. -- -BobWölfé Jung2, K.S.C.
