Do you have any experience with this? I'm asking because I know this
is something many people promise when they get elected to a board, but
then never have time for. If you have experience with it I'm sure you
can manage, but if not you should be aware that it's a lot harder than
you might think. I speak from experience, while working for my student
union we hired a communicator to get the word out, it helped but even
with a full time employee it was hard to get enough info out to the
members.

About State of the map, seems to have been a very successful event. I
wish I could have gone to them.

I'm very happy you are running for board member, your agenda seems sane.
