Background

The space has historically struggled with active communication to the membership. Despite our increased engagement on Discord, there is still a large portion of the membership that is not engaged with the communication channels that we have, and many things are not broadcast to members who physically come into the space.

Synopsis

After successfully deploying a new signage solution to the front door TV, we are looking to implement a digital signage solution in all areas of the space to increase communication with the membership and guests.

The goal is to install digital signage in every area that can display various things, including:

Area host announcements, reminders
Organization announcements
Fundraising announcements and updates

The current goal is to allow area hosts and volunteers to update select pages using standard wiki pages with custom CSS, enabling quick and easy updates.

Volunteers will also be able to add custom images and videos using the PiSignage platform powering the signage.

Language of the Vote

Authorize the CTO and President to spend $X,XXX towards the purchase and installation of a digital signage solution.
