Less than a Quorum

During last night's monthly membership meeting we realized that we've got to work on outreach more.
5 Clowns does not a quorum make, or so we thought at the time. We figured we needed 6 of the 11 full members in order to pass any motions.
All sorts of chaos broke out. Well, 5 kinds of chaos broke out.
The result, for me, is that I will again request from ALL the MEMBERS to e-mail me ASAP your best photos and bios and previously published materials/ logos/ etc..
in order that
a) our web presence will reflect the whole organization [not just me, blogging away like mad]
and more importantly
b) I will be able to create a recruitment brochure to have available at events like the Relay for Life [where longer contact can be established as opposed to the parades]

So… this entry will conclude with that request: Please e-mail me ASAP your best photos and bios and previoulsy publihsed materials/ logos/ etc.!!!

One perfect joke would be acceptable.
Big Foot Clown Alley members attended and participated in a show in Oak Harbor for the military families and the towns people of Oak Harbor. Leon McBride (Buttons) and Chagy, Angel Ocasio and his sidekick, Bruce Johnson and Jus Wally performed.
They are talking about doing it again next year. And maybe doing it here in Tacoma.
