| Lincoln Lark Business Group Meeting (Thursday, Sep 12th - Mike ) |  (Local Business leaders listen to Mayor Reinert’s presentation ) Duluth MakerSpace hosted the Lincoln Park Business Group this morning for their monthly meeting. For this meeting the group was honored to have a presentation by Mayor Roger Reinert.
Thank you to everyone who helped make the space look good and give us a chance to show off a little bit. Several of these people had not been inside DMS in years, and commented on how good the shops were looking.

| ROOF FUNDRAISING COMPLETE! (Wednesday, Aug 21st - Mike ) |  Our fundraising for the new roof is complete. We set a goal of $82,550.00 and when we were within $3200.00 of our goal a member secured a pledge from a local business owner to cover that amount. In the meantime checks continued to arrive at DMS and we ended up raising $83,380.00. The surplus will go to support our mission either by seeding our next capital improvement or tool upgrade.
Thanks to everyone who supports us through their generous donations, time, and/or dues. We would not survive without you.
