[Habitat Exec] No Meeting Monday, But Please Read and Respond with Updates

[Achim Wechsung]

Hi all,

I got back in touch with Starbucks, but haven't heard back from them. No word from pink berry either. I will follow up with them again.

Regarding the clocks: I think I like the big clock better. Random thought: Could we use the board in the MIT stadium for our purposes?

Finboard application: I increased the "base charges" that I use to calculate our builds since this quarter we seemed to need some more money. It's submitted and I'm waiting to hear back.

Enjoy the rest of Sunday night
Achim

I just got an email from Flour giving us two $25 dollar gift cards which is a great addition, so hopefully you all have some updates as well. Please let me know and keep reaching out to your assigned sponsors.

I have attached a word document with a formal letter to send these companies as well as tax information should it be needed. To start, go into the word document and update the info to reflect the correct company and your name. Find an appropriate email address within the company and send it out. If someone not assigned a company has one they think would be good to reach out to, please do so as well!
