Rockies Wikimedians usergroup?

One possible idea for the Colorado Wiknic is talk about starting a Wikimedia usergroup for volunteers in your area, maybe loosely defined as "Rockies Wikimedians" focused on the Front Range Urban Corridor. You just need two or three volunteers to come forward, and to simply sign an agreement with the Wikimedia Foundation making use of trademarks and grants for outreach events easier. Similar efforts are underway at New England Wikimedians and Cascadia Wikimedians, and I could help you start a page at meta for your group as well. (I'm with the Wikimedia NYC chapter, and there is a Wikimedia DC chapter as well - but becoming a "chapter" is a later stage, and is about incorporating as a nonprofit.)--Pharos (talk) 12:18, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed

I'm down for that. I should be at the wiknic to discuss. Undead q (talk) 22:18, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
