April Meeting Notes
Sunday afternoon, April’s Free Keene meeting was held, with nine in attendance, at a new location: The Student Center at Keene State College. We decided to take advantage of the lovely weather, and had it at some tables outside. It seems everyone agreed that the seatbelt regulation fliers were a good idea, though could be better coordinated in the future. We discussed using this method of outreach later on, and someone agreed to look into pricing.
“Keene Freedom Fest” as I’ll call it for now, was the main topic at hand. Free Minds TV threw out the idea of putting together a series of outreach events in downtown Keene. Their vision included bringing liberty organizations from around the state to set up tables in Railroad Square and offering food, which could also be a potential fund raiser.
A protest to be held right off the KSC campus regarding being able to protect oneself to prevent school violence was briefly discussed, as well as the formation of Action Groups. The idea is to have small sub groups formed that could help delegate certain tasks, in the areas of fund raising, outreach, and campaigns. Everyone seemed to enjoy having the meeting outdoors, so we brainstormed for another location.
After the meeting, Ian and I checked out Robin Hood Park as a possible future meeting location. We agreed it would be better than the college because of parking and the space. Look forward to seeing you there for our May meeting.
