Tiffany: Both are full and there is stuff on the floor in the front.
 +
 +
Danielle: What happened to the covid signs on the door? So, crap, we need new signs. Printed some out that I found from a church. And a "sanitation station" sign for the front table. Face covering required here.

 +
 +
Charles: Anything else on covid? Going once, twice. Okay, moving on. Metal shop. Bridgeport, is that handled?

 +
Wordpress. WebRing. What I would like to do so that then we can get the word out, link it out.
 +
 +
Charles:  Also on the schedule, I noticed on the wiki that there is a schedule of regular events. Whatever we put on the LVL1 website for covid schedule, we should also update the wiki so they're synched.
