# Community building
#* Facebook Cooperative Extension Second Life  148 members
#* in SL Cooperative Extension 150 members
#* Ideas for more activity:
#** Perhaps have a "movie night" - Kevin will try to get permission from copyright holder.
#** Hold "Open House" when there is a new build on Morrill, and give tour.
#** Do an update "Fair" like last year's launch Fair - One Year Anniversary event
#** SL Reality night at [http://www.extension.iastate.edu/acenetc2009 ACE/NETC Conference 2009]
# Teen Second Life
# ACE Leadership Institute
#* talked about not holding one at all next year due to travel costs, or doing something online
#* Kevin suggested Second Life rather than async or web conferencing as substitutes
# Thynka Little (LuAnn) is willing to help anyone getting oriented in SL!
