>   opportunity to give your input, creativity, and effort to the
>   group, and help shape its future direction.

>   the first eighty-eight.
> 
>   First, please join us this month at 6:30pm at the Winter Garden at
>   the World Financial Center, to discuss various projects and ideas
>   about NYLUG.  We'll be meeting directly at the tables in the Winter
>   Garden, or outside at the corner of Park Place and Broadway at

>     * Publicity team (announcements, flyers, etc.)
>     * Media team (meeting videos, photos, audio, streaming)
> 
>   Afterward, around 7:30pm, we will migrate somewhere for dinner.
