What are you concerned or excited about? Areas for questions will include tax\, membership\, and/or this organization (at least one of each). \;\n 3\;\nAgenda 6-7pm Tues Nov 13: \;\n1. Intro who we are\, what we're working on. \;\n2. Choose three or five questions\, talk through\, sh are perspectives\, learn. \;\n3.
