Hi everyone, At our last board meeting I mentioned that I would be reaching out to seek some write ups of any projects people had done with the Pergamena skins that were donated at Standards 2024 in Providence. I'm also including the GBW Newsletter team in this email as I think it could be good content for the Newsletter. I know not every chapter has been able to distribute their skin yet so please don't worry if you haven't. What I am really looking for are short articles about any projects that have been completed once the skins have been used by the recipient, are even projects that are in-process but may not be finished yet. Those projects can be small or relatively straight forward, it would just be nice to formally acknowledge this gift and get a sense of what it has allowed people to do. Please let me know if you have any questions or if you have a sense that someone has worked with the skins already.

Hi Todd, We ended up doing a drawing via email for the RMC. Here's the statement that I asked our recipient to write. I just checked in with him and he is currently working on binding a copy of Treasure Island which he plans this skin for.
