### Invitation for Solstice (Meetup etc)
Relevant times
- Moment of Solstice is 3:03 PM (we won't be there yet)
- Sunset is 4:20 PM (probably not that either)
- Most likely arrival time: 7ish
- http://www.maryhillmuseum.org/visit/stonehenge-memorial: "Stonehenge Memorial … [is] open daily 7 a.m. to dusk. Admission is free."
- But it's not really part of the "museum grounds" geographically, so it's probably okay
What we're doing
- Stargazing
- Fire? (at least candles, maybe a [Viventibus Galaxia](/Viventibus_Galaxia) plate)
- Psalm of Solstice (we could sing it instead of just listening to it)
- Talk about Deep Time and the SolSeed liturgical year
- http://www.patheos.com/blogs/allergicpagan/2011/12/29/winter-solstice-ritual/
### High Frontier Kickstarter
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1045364912/high-frontier
- Brandon doesn't think our budget will support a $1000 donation right now
- Ben likes the "name a transport ship" reward ($50)
- Brandon suggests we could pay for a 3D model of an eco-village to be put in the game
- Ben: For the "name a building after you" reward, could we name it after SolSeed?
- Ben is planning to suggest a couple of CELSS parameters for the game simulation
- Brandon wonders if we could help write the game
### Evaluation
- Brandon … so many fun things … looking forward to hearing about Bioneers … sorry I didn't get to hear your talk
- Ben … I’m feeling relieved that we still have a month and a half to plan the solstice, because it seems like it is going to take a while to get all the details together
