AFH - Charleston Project 1.0

We had another good night of drinks and discussion. Thanks for joining us last Thursday. Our first project will be, drumroll please!

Crossing the Crosstown Create a pathing, and signage which will make automobiles more aware of the pedestrians that are crossing. Signs could include ways for educating the pedestrians about safety while crossing. Ideas, planning, and implementation should be done in one to two days. This can culminate with a kick-off party, for our next project, in the park on Line St. or in front of Mitchell Elementary School.

The plan right now is to have another planning meeting with the Design Selection Team. We are still looking for memebers to join our various committees.

Project Design Selection
Fundraising/Event Organization
Administration
Project Managment Committee: which will be specific to a project and is a short term commitment, as it will run until the project is completed.

Since we have our first project we will be creating the Project Management Committee in tandum with the Design Selection Committee.

The hope is to schedule a day in January, possibly a Saturday, and run a charette for ideas on creating awareness for the issue of Pedestrains vs. the Crosstown. Plese keep an eye on the Blog, your email (if your not on the list email afh.charleston@gmail.com) and the Facebook page for dates and more information. We are also throwing around the idea of having a casual Happy Hour sometime in December.

Once again thanks so much we are all really excited about this first project!
