Cohousing-L Mailing List: Bulletin boards and other means of communication

[Peg Blum (peggyblum]

As our Common House nears completion, we have formed a Communication Work=
 Team to consider the issues of bulletin boards and signage within the =
community.

The only thing I have found thus far on this topic is:  "You will want =
twice as many bulletin boards as you think."  Where have existing communi=
ties placed bulletin boards?  What works best?  What guidelines do you =
have for maintenance of the bulletin boards?  What are the best ways of =
communicating info about coho meetings (committee as well as general); =
 including meeting dates as well as minutes of past meetings?  What about=
 other coho announcements, e.g. social, recreational, etc.?  What about =
announcements about happenings in the larger community, neighborhood,  =
etc.?

Is anyone using a touch screen computer monitor to access info such as =
coho meeting calendar?  meeting minutes? other info?  Where should this =
be placed?  Coho office?  Mailroom?

We'd appreciate any words of advice from those who have gone down this =
road before.  Thank you.
