Painting the Roses Red
- Max - paint the switches bright so people can see them for shutdown
- In progress
- Some switches are painted. Others are vile temptresses.
New Sign
- Greg S. - Start sign committee, check back in July (info this mtg)
- Looks like we are in the 25 Square feet arena,
- That is about right, i am thinking mounting it over the overhead door, biggest problem is maintaining it if out has lighting
- Some thoughts:
- We have a logo, and that is our Identity, if we change it much on our sign do we change it on all things ???
- The sign itself can be creative, but remember it has to be maintained.
Show and Tell
- i3 Sign - Jason made it.
- Electric Bike- Ken S
- Leather stamp made on the Haas by Brian W

Ed Resigns from Board
- Appoint a new board member to maintain ranks, or just wait until the next election?
- Conflicting rules about whether we need to appoint a new board member.

July 1st Member Meeting

- Should it be canceled for the holiday?

July 8th Board Meeting
- Point of Contact: Konrad B
- This meeting will coincide with the launch of Red Bull Creation.
- We plan to have a "ground control" crew to aid our Red Bull team with ideation.
- The commons area is likely to be the best location for this and it would conflict with a Board meeting.
- The board meeting should be moved to a different date or canceled.
- Tell your board if you have an opinion
Integrated Space Plan
(Nate B)
- It's a cool poster we printed
- Conceptual tool to map humanity's expansion into the cosmos
- They're making a new one, and a few members would like to chip in and get i3's logo put on it
- No use of group funds, just asking for a thumbs-up that this would be an appropriate use of the name and logo
