Check In
- Ben ... I have a headache, might be sick, or could be MSG? ... had Japanese for lunch with dev team ... (how was prototype?) ... thought my demo was amatuerish and had things go wrong, was told that it wasn't bad compared to some they'd seen
- Shelley ... had a nearly perfect day, walked with Sequoia and looked at Sunflowers, date with Brandon, got some work for work done, did a bunch of cooking for equinox service, now folding laundry
- Brandon ... have been kind of depressed, but had a pretty good day today and feel like I have some direction, which feels good
- Sequoia ... is going to be worn by his caregiver at Childroots to help him feel more connected to her ... Childroots is his "school"

SpaceWiki
- Brandon is corresponding with someone at SpaceX ... wants to know what we would want from them
- We wrote and sent off a response during this call
- Looking at the costs for Space Manufacturing conference, $2500 may be reasonable, or $1500 if we decide to try to get other sponsors
- $250 for registration
- around $200 for hotel
- around $500 for plane flights if only Ben and Brandon go

SolSeedVillage
- We're not sure if we'll proceed with a backyard cottage, but doing the "Additional Dwelling Unit" tour will still be useful, fun, and help Matthew and Molly get more involved
- Let's aim for Saturday October 2
- Shelley will reply to Matthew and Molly, and mention the Equinox Celebration too
- As for remodeling the house, the three of us can informally look at ideas after the Celebration
- Shelley thinks the current laundry situation is dangerous and should be modified sooner rather than later
Equinox Celebration
- Shelley feels good about being able to invite and include quite a few people
- Notice how that went and brainstorm how to expand our circle of influence by inviting more people (especially to participate since this seems to deepen commitment)
- People could give presentations (we have done some of that)
- Introduction acknowledging that not all those present are SolSeed members ... others may just find the Equinox to be a meaningful event
- Shelley, Ted, and Heather have a rehearsal tomorrow on phone for readers theater
- Ben's parents have music and poems
- Hopefully the service can be outside
OnePagePlan
3rd Quarter Goals
- SpaceWiki:
- <s>Yellow ... Created sponsor-specific inspiring materials and approached one potential sponsor with those to ask about them sponsoring an event ... done</s>
- Green ... One thorough sponsorship campaign (talking to lots of people at the potential sponsoring organization, etc) ... three people so far, can probably achieve this
- Super Green ... Five thorough sponsorship campaigns
- Place:
- Yellow ... firm decision and commitment for pocket cottage and/or main house renovation (PCAOMHR) timeline
- Green ... inspiring concept plans for the PCAOMHR
- Super Green ... plans you could build from, and a builder
- Media:
- <s>Yellow ... work on the big book every other week, average 250 words/week (500 per session) .. already there</s>
