Repair, refine, vote.

Town Hall #4 has two big jobs: repair anything that's surfaced this week, and run the Lip Dub song vote. Standard of Excellence v2 begins. By end of TH: the song is chosen.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet — this day page is a skeleton awaiting full minute-by-minute detail. The structure below mirrors Week 1 Day 1 (see that page for the gold standard of what each day eventually looks like). Fill in launches, block notes, supplies, and go-deeper content as the quest moves forward.
