Great meeting of HAL Marketing Committee at 4pm. Agi Clark presented her ideas and we had a lively discussion and brainstorming session. Left feeling very buoyant about this work. It is clear that we need to organize the messaging around the various classes of users, children, parents, teens, etc.

4/29/2011 – Royal Wedding at 114
Friday
Got up early and noticed people standing around outside PM Winebar. Kevin Moran, owner, had promised to open up early so that people could come and watch the wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William together in front of his big screen. Apparently he he didn’t set an alarm.
So, with Susan Johnson bringing her scones and a couple of pots of coffee we invited those gathered to come in and watch on the gallery monitor.
