Facebook Live: Most recent meeting produces new logo, new ideas to implement
|
The Facebook Live - Chico group met Wednesday and a new logo has been created. In addition to that, the group will aim to form allegiances with other local organizations that have the same goal: To make Chico a better place to live and work.
 You can access the page by clicking here. You must have a Facebook account to join. If you haven't signed up do so! And be sure to tell all your friends!
The group currently has 367 members and, with the success of the Chico Food Bank Tweetup, is gaining recognition around Chico.
The next meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, April 1 at Uptime CoWorking Studio at the corner of First and Salem streets, and there is likely to be a very special (and possibly silly) event taking place before that meeting on April Fool's Day.
