Sounds like a lot of fun, and a great way for all Downers to come together! Personally, I think it would be best to keep most things fairly flexible. I do agree that there should be a little order to the chaos though. Also, here is my idea (humble though it is)- Whoever starts the VERY first chapter, should include like a mssion statement type thing. (I hope I am making sense here) Ex.-
1. This is NOT a 'club'. It is open to everyone on the Downs.
2. We will shoot for ____ chapters a week, but feel free to go at own pace.
Etc, etc. Hope I didn't just sound like an executive or a dork.
Oh, and will someone tell me when the start date might be? I will be gone the next 6 weeks, and am not sure how often I'll be able to get on the Downs, and I would like to start with everyone else. Thank you!
