Progress Report

February 17 - 23

2 hours - Planning meeting primarily focused on the Spring Equinox Festival. The Imagination Masquerade and Trade will be held March 29th at the Abbey Theatre from 8pm - 1am. The first two hours will focus on the artisans trade and silent auction. Live performers will fill the Abbey inside and out - firedancers, drummers, musicians, poi dancers, jugglers, burlesque dancers, etc. The Abbey will be portioned off into areas of fire, air, earth, and water. At 10pm the masquerade will start, and the music will include djs and possibly a couple of bands.

4 hours - Creating decorations for the Abbey. Half a dozen of us met at Molly's house and created giant flowers to hang from the ceiling, a tie-died sheet streamer waterfall, fire streamers and blower and other decorations.

1 hour - Kurt and I began constructing the first mushroom for the giant mushroom forest which will be featured at the summer festival and previewed at the masquerade. We are starting with paper mache and wire - if we can perfect a solid design we may try to build some strong enough to climb on.

2 hours - Researching domain and hosting and buying a domain. Talked to IT at FLC and Brainstorm but didn't really get much help as they weren't familiar with Joomla. After talking to Dan, researched different hosting sites online that already had Joomla Apps. Purchased a site for a year through SiteGround and uploaded Joomla. Our site name is We4C.org.

4 hours - Working on Turtle Lake Refuge website. Completed a couple recipe videos, polished several of the videos, took screenshots of many of the videos and cleaned them up in Photoshop, uploaded videos to Vimeo! and YouTube, cleaned up webpages in Dreamweaver.
