Create a sie/hir handout printout (or, in a pinch, just use MIT's) that briefly explains:
1. There's only two words to remember! Though it might seem hard to learn, it's easier than you think.
2. Some example sentences (some good ones are here or here, but if I can think of some comical sentences, that might be good too?)
3. An explanation of what "markedness" means in linguistics (it's akin to "queer"), and why I think that means it shouldn't be used as a generic way to refer to cisgendered people, but RATHER should be used specifically as a way to very publicly note that someone feels queer (particularly genderqueer).
4. A list of alternatives to sie/hir. (I personally think sie/hir are the best choice, but it's good to note that it is by no means the only accepted option among the community)
We REALLY SHOULD register the domain name "GenderQueerChicago.com". It doesn't seem to be taken. I can pay for it, but does someone else want to "own" it? Otherwise I can do it, no problem.

The calendar on the right is awesome. Unfortunately, it gets all squished up. What's the best way to fix this?
- From what I can tell, this is the relevant Calendar HTML, and it's generated by a "widget".
- This is the "edit me" widget link that's semi-hidden. But you have to be logged in to make it work.
- blogger's official documentation:
  - the "Layout" feature generally
  - widgets
    - "Widget Tags for Layouts"
    - "How do I create new widgets for other people to add to their layouts?"
- calendar.google.com's official documentation:
  - embedding
  - less official documentation
