I like it!
Lets start with July and if everything goes out well (like I'm sure it
will) will do a 2nd activity on August (maybe smaller, but just to keep us
active).

I think either the anniversary of Fedora Women in July or Women's Equality
Day in August would be viable dates to begin planning for. Both are far
enough in the future where it would give us time to organize and publicize.
I think the July date could be an important one to celebrate among
existing members, while maybe the August date could have more of an
"outreach" sort of focus?
