= Venue problems =
<strike>
* there are no chairs on the main area
** for now we have been bringing chairs from other sections of the building and bringing them back
** 50 or 75 IKEA foldable chairs that can be racked will be ideal
** (this was the biggest problem when I ran my event; GM)
</strike>
* there is no water tap
** water bottles are bought prior to events
<strike>
* the door from the community space to the kitchen cannot be locked
** it requires keeping an eye at the door
</strike>
* there are no garbage containers inside of the furniture that has 3 holes which is supposed to have garbage containers
** we have to bring bins from other sections of the building
* we need a portable screen to do projection
** so far we have been able to project unto one of the blinds since it's dark outside
* catering needs to have a waiter
** groups of 15+ that are getting food need to have a waiter on hand to do clean-up and bussing (busing?) <em>throughout</em> the event

= Mission packages/swags =
* we should get packages of our mission and how to get involved in the ToMozSpace for people to pick up
* poster explaining the mission
* [https://wiki.mozilla.org/ReMo/Toolkit ReMo Toolkit]
* [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/brand/ Firefox brand toolkit]
* Swags (stickers and others) to just grab
* Marcia's postcards' idea?

= Logistics =
* determine procedure to grant access
* write down usage of equipment & wireless
* write down parking and transit info

= Events/ideas =
These are events that we could do and all it needs someone who would like to drive them.
* "Mission day"
** Talk about the importance of the Mozilla mission and how to empower others to pass on the message
* "Demo day"
** Showing what the browser can do and why it is important
* "MozCamp"
* "OpenSource Week" (October)
* "Reading Week crash course" (October/February)
* "Web Maker Science Fair"
** Basically a show and tell for a bunch of cool projects. We've run them at the Mozilla Festivals and they're super popular. 
* Something education and learning themed
** Gather together teachers and educators working on hacking, digital literacy, etc. Matt Price and others have expressed interest. I bet Greg Wilson would be into it, too. + of course Dave Humphrey and others.
* Popcorn Camp
** Get local film makers together with developers interested in learning more about Mozilla Popcorn. Leverage the success of Kat Cizek's "One Millionth Tower" project
* Hacker Space
** Invite reps from the Toronto hacker space to do something cool with Arduino. Or lasers. Or something.
* TedX Toronto
** We have several points of contact. Would be great to host some inspiring tech / thought leadership talks, TED / Ignite style.
* Mobile Android QA Testers
* Newbies Workshop
** Event for folks who want to start to contribute to Mozilla
* XBox Competition
