Union Room 340 Friday from 2-4 p.m or whenever we finish.
Let everyone that wants to be involved know. This meeting will "voting" on offices and chairs, giving people jobs to do. We want to spread out the jobs and work, so the more people we have the better it will be.
SBGC wont just focus on Men's B-Ball but all Panther Sports.
But it's important that we get as many people as possible there. Getting more students involved will lead to good things.
So let everyone know!

I'm in Madison for Army training and can't make it. Can someone take a roll call and keep a minutes to post up here? It would be nice to know who's going to be doing what/assigned to what, and I'd like to be involved despite not being able to be present.

Don't worry, SRT4, we've got you covered. We're going to be posting minutes for every meeting up on the website.
The website that I have been working on will be merged into John Jay's gouwm.com.
Parker, put up a list of the positions we will have available on the board here and see if anyone has interest who can't make it to the meeting.

I was meaning put the positions we'll have available up on here, with a short description. That way, SRT4 and others could let us know if they want to be considered for the positions and can "give us reasons to put them in said positions."

Here's the breakdown on who we voted into what (you'll notice several people hold multiple spots; this is because we had about 12 people for many necessary spots):
President - Jimmy Lemke Vice President - Korry Bertram Secretary - John Parker Men's Basketball Coordinator - Eric Henrichs Men's Basketball Assistant Coordinator - Kurt Smet Women's Basketball (2) - Travis Wacker and John Parker (a.k.a. Wack in the Park) Fall Sports Coordinator - Unnamed, since fall is almost over Spring Sports Coordinator - Tommy Dunne Social Events Coordinator - AJ Riehle Publicists - Travis Wacker and John Parker Roadtrip Coordinator - Tommy Dunne Financial Director - Matt Traub Apparel Coordinator - Caitlin Heller Webmaster - John Jay Ward
So, basically, each of these people will be running a committee that will do the work of their respective sections. Obviously, Tommy will be working mostly on Road Trips, since spring sports don't start for 4 months.
Any questions or suggestions, or if you'd like to help, please, by all means, hop into discussion.

I'm a fairly recent alum ('05), and I'd be happy to help out in any way I can. I think I'd be best at advertisement- spreading fliers wherever possible: on cars- hey people will be relieved it's not a parking ticket!), putting schedules in places like CD Max, The Exclusive Company, Atomic Records, Jimmy John's (they have a bulletin board in the shop next to the bathroom), etc., etc., and other avenues.
I am currently in the beginning stages of studying for the GMAT as time allows and plan to apply for Graduate Business School by Fall '09. Would I have to wait until next year when I am enrolled to help? Or can I help now as an alum? Let me know- I know this is a student group*, but I feel I could and should help out.
*I can't make any meetings before 5pm Mon-Fri., but as long as someone keeps me in the loop (and maybe if the group had a couple evening or weekend meetings down the road), I'm sure I could be effective in my free time.

If you feel like you can help out, I don't think we can say no...I just think you wouldn't be an "official" member of the group.

Sounds good. I'll try to make the last hour of the meeting this Friday if I can get off work early. I hope we can get as many people as possible on board to help and make this the season where our organizational efforts (similar to the UWGB home game 2 years ago) generate the kind of enthusiasm we need for Milwaukee Athletics.
Also, I work with, am friends with, and still keep in touch with literally over a hundred UWM alums (who in turn know many other alums). So to add another element to the mix, I think I could do a good job of advertising to these folks and getting them in the stands (for soccer, basketball, volleyball, etc.).
Hopefully I'll be able to meet you guys sometime soon. Maybe I could staff a sort of "Alumni Relations" position. lol. But seriously, I think it's a good idea. Milwaukee and surrounding areas are teaming with UWM grads- everyone on this board knows that. Myself and many of you guys are those people! lol

If you can't make that, we'll be at the women's soccer game at 7 p.m. at Engelmann.

Gotcha. I really enjoyed that ESPN article about Sarah Hagen and have got to see her play live. I only went to one soccer game last year (men's vs. Wisconsin)... Gotta go to more men's and women's games- these teams are good!' Will you guys be on the EMS side or by the home team stands next to Cunningham? (I assume the latter...?) Hopefully my boss won't mind if I leave at 3:45-4:00. What you guys have done so far is very impressive; let's follow through to the fullest extent and start generating some school spirit!
