DUTCH / PRIDE NATION: Next Meeting Tuesday 1/17 !!!

Post by Polito »

Sticky Please!

Ok folks, our next meeting is set, and we are calling ALL to arms!! There has been some great behind the scenes work occurring to help us establish this organization and to align with the university, including some great introductions, discussions, meetings, emails, potential plans, and so on.

This is a tremendously important event, because as Stu has alluded to, we have some key folks who have agreed to be in attendance, and we truly need every single person there we can have to show our value and validity. The Admin is excited about what we are doing, as are we with their support and involvement, and I am happy to report they are working with us 100%.

Details:

Tuesday 1/17
8pm - 10pm Approx.
The Savoy Tavern, Merrick
Confirmed Guests:
- Mike, Director of Ticket Sales
- Kevin, Senior Director of Athletic Development
- Andrea, Director of Athletic Development

(Jeff, HU's AD, is fully aware and on board, but will be away next week for other required meetings)

We are working diligently on additional guests, including key coaches, communications, etc., and will update as this progresses. The owner of the Savoy, Guy, a huge HU supporter and fan, will be with us as well. We will gather more details on the setup for the evening (i.e. food / drink specials).

General Topics / Agenda to follow beforehand.

This evening makes for a great, productive, and effective night - VERY excited about this kick off for '17, and to continue building on what we have all embarked on!

Remember everyone, we've all been asking / hoping for this for quite some time, and it's starting to happen, so please adjust your schedules for this one 2 hour evening, and BE THERE to help us make an IMPACT!!! 8-) 8-) 8-)

Very nice Polito! See if you can setup a web stream that I and others could view from out of state. I'd love to be involved if only by listening/watching.

Will work on a live look dutchalum01, that would be great! I know there are a few out of state folks that plug in here.

For those with work, hey trust me I get it, you have to do what you have to do.

But IF there is ANY way you can adjust and move some things around, that would be a major boost for us. I mean unless you are an OR surgeon or President Elect Trump lol, perhaps a little creativity might be in order to break free from prison for 2 hours that night :P

I know it's not our last meeting ever, but this is a key night for our efforts, so I do want to appeal to the inner winner in us all and encourage everyone to find a way to figure it out and come through - just a little nudge to get those creative juices flowing!! 8-)

Awaiting to hear updates on how the meeting went. Surprised at lack of updates, It either went great with big turnout and people hung over or it was a bust.
