		+	Logo
		+
		+	Elizabeth showed some updates to the logos.
		+
		+	The first change shows different contours within the log (representing a distinctive mountain).
		+
		+	The second and third shows different ribbon placement and colors, and experiments with different fonts.
		+
		+	She will draft some questions to Darrell to use to send out with the update logos and use in the next poll. Schedule has the next iteration of the design coming in at the end of this week for final tweaks, with final logo being delivered on Dec 23rd.

		+
		+	We now need to know what extra needs we will want in terms of extras, security and scaling related stuff, etc.
		+
		+	We need to decide on who and how many people will be inputting content.

		+	Possible local contact could be Webb?

		+	Sponsors
		+
		+	Tanya posted draft flyer text to the TeamworkPM site, and also an example draft flyer for general feedback. The text and flyer design will remain fluid until at least Dec 23rd while we wait for final logo design, colors and fonts. Target is to have a final sponsor packet ready to go in the early new year time frame.
		+
		+	Most discussion centered on the 10% discount window - when should it close, and how long should the lead time be? Need to talk to folks from previous years to figure out what is typical.
		+
		+	We need to factor in the timeline for printing any materials that need to be mailed to sponsors.
		+
		+	++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
		+
		+	Field Trips
		+
		+	Nick Martinelli is going to take on the Timbers Game item and will go with option 3.

		+
		+	CUGOS Meeting
		+
		+	CUGOS has a meeting tomorrow and is looking for ways they can help us.
		+
		+	One awesome idea is to have adjacent chapter folks help staff an OSGEO booth for the event to take that load off the LOC members.
		+
		+	Follow our FOSS4G account and retweet us, link us on your blog, mentions in software and other related communities, etc.
		+
		+	In general we need a running list of small tasks that volunteers can help with.

		+	+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
		+
		+	Map Wall
		+
		+	A very popular item at the Nottingham event, and we have the potential for some great PNW cartographic contributors.
		+
		+	Barry was the main contact for Nottingham. There were 16 iPads rotating 70 maps in the gallery. Tanya will contact Barry for information on how everything was done.

		+	VTM has encountered vendors that rent equipment e.g. SmartSource, so Molly will reach out to see what this sort of thing costs...
