Do we want more intense outings to be available to everyone in the club? (Heidi)

鈫 Yes, in general we have to trust that people will show up for serious commitment events especially when other non-bates community people are involved

Are going to be doing the same no/show policy for community engagement things as well

Who wants to help with halloween/candy handing out? Heidi will send out an email!

Have activities other than just candy too? Fairy houses/cornhole/little field games
