Travis - Austin - barbecue on Sunday 7/22 11AM in a local city park at Lake Austin - grill, beverages - low key, informal - hope to get 10 MMMs and spouses - The Austin event was small but successful. - We had two incoming students and 3 alums show up. - With spouses, kids and significant others we were at about a dozen people. - I think it was good first step. - I’m interested in doing it again next year.
