10-2pm Saturday December 14, 2019! - KidsQuest 2.0 Grand ReOpening - DMS Guests of Honor

[Kevin]

Hey guys,

The reopening of the most loved kids park in the city KidsQuest 2.0 is this Saturday 10am-2pm
Free lunch and festivities will be provided.
Should be a blast.
There were around 500 people just for the closing in anticipation of the reopening.
We expect a lot of people, fun, & festivities.

On a side note there will be TV and news press releases I believe and having DMS mentioned in there is great PR for the space. Let’s show some love for the city, kids & DMS. The city has graciously extended us a table as a guests of honor.

We can also build stuff on the spot, play, install pickets, shine our brass plaque & just tell people what we do.

1625 Gross Rd, Mesquite, TX 75149

@Team_Moderators Can yall pin this through Saturday

The city wrote a thank you to us and installed the first 4 pickets for DMS & our Brass plaque already and says hi to everyone btw.

Be sure to grab some trifolds and stickers before you go.

[Kevin]

Will do.
IDK if I can fit the table and chairs in my car though.
Is anyone from PR coming?
@apparently_weird

[Edenblue]

PR right now is only JJ and myself (although we would love more volunteers!!) Unfortunately I will be in a meeting at dms and JJ has outside plans.

[apparently_weird]

Kevin, unfortunately I can not help man this booth like I have other PR endeavors, but I could help transport a table and chairs on my way out of town. What time is set up if it starts at 10? Setup at 8? Anything else needed?

[Kevin]

That would be great, but how do we get stuff back to the space?
Setup at 9:45am I would think is fine.

Table cloth & the popcorn machine we were going to use.
& popcorn consumables?

I got trifolds, business cards, 1 x first responder dye sub thing.
A couple small t-shirts for prizes if thats OK?

[Kevin]

Also if anyone likes to face paint, dress up as clowns or make balloon animals that sort of thing bring it on

[Kevin]

Couldnt find the stickers.
Any idea where they are?

[Edenblue]

Will you be at the space tonight? They are in the finance room but I can grab them for you if you are there tonight or leave them for you in dm.

[Kevin]

Yes I’ll be there starting within a couple hours

@Kevin

Thank you so much for engaging the city of Garland on behalf of the MakerSpace. You have put so much work into this, and shined a wonderfully bright light on our space.

Thank you!

[mrjimmy]

@apparently_weird and @Kevin how big is the table? I may be able to put it in the back seat of my car if it’s one of those fold in half card tables.
