CPLUG’s Week of Welcome Events ’08

Posted by on September 10, 2008 No comments

WOW starts in about a week, and the Execboard is planning on having strong presence for several events that week. However, we can’t do everything ourselves, so we need help for the following events. Any help (even if just for preparation or set up / tear down) is greatly appreciated. Let’s show the freshmen that Linux nerds know how to represent (stabs self for such an awful phrase).

SLO Bound – Tuesday Sep 16th 12-2:30PM

Freshmen will be walking the steets of San Luis Obispo going to various places of business. I’d like 6-7 people to give out 20 copies of our OpenCD with a flier telling them to visit our booth at the club fair and with the club web site on them. We’ll need help making the CD’s and fliers (probably Friday night or Saturday), and handing them out. You won’t have to be downtown all 2.5 hours, just long enough to hand out your CD’s, although I’d like to space out the people handing them out (2 every 30 minutes) to get a wide spread of discs. Volunteers requested for 30 minute shifts.

CSC Luncheon – Wednesday Sep 17th 11AM-1PM

CSC and SE majors will be introduced to their Faculty, and ACM usually speaks. I say if ACM is there, we should be too. I did this last year, spoke about 1 minutes on the club, and then sat down and talked with freshmen during lunch about the club, the campus, or whatever they wanted. I’d like 2 people to help me out  with this. There’s a free lunch in it for you if you want it.

WOW Block Party – Friday Sep 19th 4-7:30PM
Setup @ 3:00PM / Teardown @ 8:00PM (or maybe earlier)

Looking for people for 1hr+ shifts. Sit down, talk to freshmen about the club, hand out free stuff, good times for all. Bring a laptop if you can, especially if you’re running something cool (compiz fusion, any non-GNOME or KDE desktop, eeePC, OLPC, video production), although I don’t think we’re going to have power (don’t expect it). Bring a chair as well if you’d like to sit, no idea if we’ll have any provided.

Execboard can’t do this alone, please respond with the events/times you can help out so we can make this WOW a success.
