[Adminsysters] Chat

Thu Sep 4 15:50:05 CEST 2025

Hello all,

I thought perhaps we could confirm the 18th as a day for the conversation?
>From the poll I see that it’s the only option with no solid “no”s so think
it might be the best bet?

For those who answered with maybe, is there a better time that would suit
everyone that day? I can be available the whole day!

For reference, here’s the poll:

Best,
Kendal
