Public calendar has been updated with new info
Newcomer info sessions - packets seemed to be helpful
No one showed up Friday or Monday and 3 people showed up Tuesday
Would be helpful to have a space booked next time
Next year have info sessions right after newcomer class instead of before, since newcomers are already there
Space
Few more spaces confirmed for Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays - check the public Google calendar for details
Newcomer workshops
Going to be held on Sundays 1:00-2:30 pm, next Sunday 2/18 is first workshop
Hopefully newcomers will stay for Sunday rounds 2:30-4:00 pm

Recruitment ideas
We should table on the ramps and play music and show club pics/videos/tri-folds before major events such as Val Gala
Club members not on board can come hang out!
Shoe shopping trip
Looking at weekend before Val Gala
Before shoe shopping trip, pull out donated Latin shoes to see if anyone wants them and do a ballroom buy/sell
Competition workshop
Sometime before Rutgers, potentially at the end of one of the Sunday workshops
UPenn
Bus tickets are all purchased, we are ready to go!
Good luck on Saturday, team!
Valentine’s Fundraiser
Soft deadline to sign up to take a lesson is Sunday, 2/11
Afterwards will find availability of these couples and find CU Ballroom members who are free to teach them
Valentine’s Gala
Two performing couples for the event
Also looking into a collaboration with CU Pops to have live music there!
Leads and Follows Night
Potentially first weekend of March
NYU Rounds
Suggestion to do some kind of mixer where people must dance with people from the other team before rounds formally start
Sensual Movement Bachata
Offered to create a social performance team for us, accommodate us for classes and socials
Will look into it some more
Outreach with Rhythm Break Cares
Looking to get groups of 2-3 dancers to attend
Spring Break Performance
Columbia is hosting other universities in a conference, looking for performances
Team iPod
Loading new music on it - send Patrick any song requests you have!
E-Board Timeline/Recruiting
Would be nice to have shadowing to see what being on board/e-board is like
Nice improvement in board visibility, board presence at classes so far
Board info session before/after classes or during rounds?
Nationals
Will send out Google form for people interested in attending Nationals
