Here are the Minutes for the 15th of December. Sorry it took so long for me to send them to you. Look forward to getting things going again soon.

Barrington Collective Minutes #5 (12/ 15/02) Stebbins

1. DIY Festival Recap-

2. Autonomy issue-

3. Documentary-

4. Website (John. Charlie)-

5. Post Break plans (we're taking a break from stuff in late December and early January because many people are leaving)-

a. Marissa suggests- mace, weapons safety seminar so people can carry mace for protection; possibly taken on by the women's sub-group since people feel that it's opens the general Barrington Collective up to too many events if we take it on and possibly splinters the group.

b. Encourage the flexibility of the group (I don't know what the was supposed to mean, I took bad notes)

c. Make two flyers to be posted atleast once monthly: 1) a list of all the sub-groups with contact info., mission statements, when they meet, and a note on how to start your own sub-group 2) A monthly calendar of events

d. Make a list of contacts/ resources sheet:

e. Events to do (who might do the event is in parentheses): DIY Festival- maybe april (BC general), Art Show (Alkaline Collective), Copy Cafe- sewing, art, letter writing in a group (writer's bloc and Copy Cafe), co-op tour (?), Mace/ Weapons Safety Seminar (Marissa), Individual in-depth workshops every week or two around the co-ops (BC General), WESTCO report back (general)

f. challenge to take on for the months following the break- prepare for the transition of the group when current members leave Berkeley, increase representation around the co-ops and in the Berkeley area, increase awareness of our group, help people who have newly signed up or who were to busy previously get involved with what they're interested in, get Freshman (especially) and Sophomore representation, Extend more fully into the East Bay community,

g. Have a B.C. retreat somewhere- Any ideas? Try to use the USCA cabin (?). Backpacking ? , bring suggestions up to the group

h. Start the B.C. documentary- (Art/ Film/Alexis: I don't know what that means either but it sounds like a winning combination for just about anything to me)

i. Actually get some stickers and PRINT THEM ON THE CORRECT SIDE.

J. Film (?)
