For January 31st

As I mentioned, I will be out of town this coming Monday.

EVERYONE is responsible for making sure it is a good meeting. I will leave detailed instructions along with my camera for filming.

I know you are all seniors (except Jacqueline) and there is a lot going on. Getting the research done well is the work that needs to be done before we can play. You guys have all the ability you need to do it so please use it so we can move forward.

Looking forward to watching what you film!
