Dec monthly meeting and 6 month review

Half way there! Its been a 6 month journey for all of us at LIFT. We met at Google this month, thanks to Larry. He was the gracious host, walking umpteen times in the rain, to receive each one of us at his plush office. After the warm welcome, we unanimously agreed that the "Googlers" were really spoilt people. Their office amenities include mobile hair-cutting salons, heated bathroom seats and bidets!

We toasted to our little success at Books Inc, the LEARN event at the local public middle school and the fund-raiser/social at Chevy's. We seem to have nailed quite a few things down. Our charts are beginning to look good!

We are now planning our Valentine's Day event, the TeamWorks event and a Book Club event. Montez has worked on some fund-raisers and suggested programs like silent auctions, free tickets etc. We have also decided to adopt a big project in January 2008 South/East Bay to bring all the extended LIFT family together. Lake Elizabeth in Fremont seems like an attractive place to meet, volunteer and barbecue. After all, this is sunny California and we cannot stop boasting of our winter weather.

We also completed our 6 month review. It was a totally productive meeting.
