Starting off the meeting Chris and Philip collected money for the club shirts. Then the group discussed more about the door project including the budget and materials for the structure.

Details of the Video Game Industry meet-up at the VP of EA's house this weekend were discussed. The exact time of the visit is not yet set.

Taniela is creating a group of engineers that want to explore local general contractors, and engineering firms and the projects that they're working on. Hopefully we can get guest speakers to visit the club and plan field trips.
