**and have some advertising to it

T-Shirts Update

Hey guys!

I just wanted to let you know, that our T-SHIRTS CAME IN THE MAIL! Celebration!
Now we just need to figure out what to put on them. I'll be buying that special printing paper soon, so please bring ideas to the first meeting, which will be next Tuesday, September 14 at 3:15.

Don't forget, we're finishing up the club rush videos at that meeting! I'll have a script ready, so really all you have to do is say one line. Wear something you won't mind being caught on video in. ;]

Keep the SOLV Beach Clean Up in mind! It's coming up on Saturday, September 25, 2010 at 10 am. We need transportation and a head count. Try to know by the next meeting! (at least if you can go)

Oh, also, thank so much for the quick responses last post! This year will be wonderful, especially if we can keep that up!
See you next week, and I hope your first day was awesome!

We're almost there...

Summer is almost over, and that means we're about to start another awesome year of Do Something shenanigans. Hopefully, this year will be the best yet. If that's gonna happen, we've got a lot to do.

For the sake of keeping this short, here are some bullet points...

-Meetings now start at 3:15! We still end at 4.
-No more CJ! We're changing it to a more welcoming suggestion jar.
-No poster board for Club Rush. Instead we're having a DVD with videos of our projects.
-I still need to film, so we'll do this at the first meeting, which is Tuesday, September 14 at 3:15.
-First meeting after Club Rush, we'll have a meet and greet. As soon as we know when Club Rush is, we'll plan this more thoroughly.
-We need to hook a lot of people at club rush! Hopefully, we want enough people to have committees. Some for projects, and a committee for fundraising. Let's make it happen!
-We're ordering bulk t-shirts soon, hopefully before Club Rush. I'll try getting a hold of you for your shirt size.
-Everyone will be getting a monthly calendar with events, meetings, etc. on it. There will be a hard copy in the DS box in Bowman's class. We'll also have a public calendar (possibly) in the window of Ms. Bowman's room.
-We're going to try and continue monthly pop can collecting throughout the school year.
-If you wanna know some of the projects we talked about, check out the sidebar. --->

ALSO! We are making contact sheets so that we can spread the word when a new blog is up. There's a bit of explaining to do about this, so we will talk about it at the meeting.

Thanks for sticking by, guys! See you at school!
