When and where: Tango Tea Room, 7:00 PM. June 3, 2006

Notes compiled by: Sandra Campos, DC Tedrow

The meeting began at 7:10 pm. DC, Sandra, Robert, Michael, Jason, and Daniel were in attendence.

First, we discussed a collaboration between TTT and the Corpus Christi chapter of the Progressive Populist Caucus (CCPPC). From Robert, we heard that the CCPPC's John Kelley offered to integrate TTT into the newspaper he edits, "We the People". After considering, we voted to decline the offer, but keep up a friendly dialogue with them. (On June 12, Candy indicated that she was against this idea as well.)

This raised the question of how TTT should organize as a group. We agreed to incorporate TTT into the CHR and accordingly use the CHR model for decision-making, etc.

Next, we discussed changing the current layout of the newpaper into a 16-page, 7" x 10" magazine layout. DC pointed out that printing would cost the same, and TTT could start printing up feature-length articles. The group voted for the change, and agreed that the next issue would be printed in the news-magazine format.

From there, we talked about the content of the next issue, and the possibility of soliciting local businesses for ad-sponsorship. A tentive list of possible businesses was made. The meeting ended at 8:30pm.
