Meeting 10/12/10

Hey guys! How's it goin?

So first of all, we were talking about the Homecoming parade (our theme is Scooby Doo by the way) and this is what we have for characters:
Shaggy-Angus
Freddy-Alysia
Scooby-Charlee
Velma-Courtney
Daphne-Carmella
Ghost-Emma
Monsters-Grace
Candy throwers-Eli, Annie, Aly, Kendra
If you should be on this list and you are not... that is bad!!! post a comment and tell me what is wrong and I will repost corrections!
Try to dress up as a monster that you would see in Scooby Doo but if you can't think of anything, just wear something hippieish... (that's a word by the way) and if you don't own tyedye and there is no way for you to borrow any then come decked out in Tigard gear.
If you are not going to be on another float, make sure you are at Albertson's by 3pm (4 at the latest) on Friday. Oh and just in case you wanted to know, we are 27th on the list... that's how much they love us... :)

Set up for the parade is on Thursday at 3pm and we will meet in Bowman's room and gravitate towards the mystery machine (Alysia's van).
Everybody needs to bring a dollar this week to give to an officer and we will all buy candy for you to throw at-I mean to the children. :)

HALLOWEEN ROOMS!!!!!!
The Halloween rooms are on October 31st from 3-5pm. Setup is on that Saturday from 2-4pm
and then on the 31st from 1-3pm. Our theme is Peter Pan and we were planning on making clothes pin Fairies, a treasure chest, hats/wings, a fake sword fight (w/ fake swords), pixie stick pixie dust, and having the actual movie playing in the corner. Eli and I were also thinking of having Tinkerbells all over the room and if the kids find them all they get a prize... What do you think?

A few other things we talked about were the Invisible Children
showing in 2 weeks and Court is putting up posters all over the school. BRING A FRIEND!!!

We also talked about our 1 in 3 PSA. our deadline is December 3rd which is also "National it's time to talk Day". Comment if you would be able to find people to interview or just find info on teen dating abuse.

Coming up:
Schools for schools is a yes- we are planning it next meeting
Who wants to do a Tualatin River Cleanup???
Anyways... Here is what you should have gotten out of this:
  • Bring money
  • Courtney needs to put up fliers
  • Everyone needs to decide what you are going to be for the parade and comment
  • Will you be there for Halloween rooms and setup?
  • think of ideas for Halloween rooms
  • ... that's it?
if this post sucked I am sorry! this is my first time and it took me an hour so give me a break please :)

You are wonderful, Quinn. And you don't suck one bit. :]
I like the Tinkerbell idea! We'll decide roles for people to take on at the next meeting. Sooo, that's something else to think about.
I'll bug Aaron tomorrow about the Tualatin River Clean Up.
Muchos gracias, my dear!

Alysia said...

that was a quinntastic post!!
i too like the tink idea
it's not only court putting up the fliers, maybe we could do that after school one of these days instead of putting it all on poor courtney?? i would like to help anyway
THANKS QUINNY for being so.... quinnyish :D

Courtney said...

Speaking of flyers, Alysia... I love you a lot. Can lovely Mr. James provide copies for us? Or should we take a trip to Kinkos?

After I get them approved, I would love help getting them up! I'll comment when that happens, I suppose.

It just occurred to me that I won't be able to go to the set up on Thursday. Is there any way that Alysia/Emma/Quinny/Veterans would like to lead things? I'll give someone the supplies we bought for it tomorrow.
<3
Quinntastic is an official adjective as of October 12, 2010.

Ok Quinnifred that was just QUINNTASTIC! My friend Tomi wants to joing the club and be a part of the parade. She'd like to be a monster and she's going to tell me which one that is really soon!
I can't be there thursday (tomorrow) because I have an oral surgen appointment... I think Quinn and Alysia should lead together!
Tinkerbell is a GO!
And... yeah fun colors!

My friend Tomi has made up her mind she shall be a vampire cat... she looked it up online. Aparently they are hipie cats with fangs! AWESOME! So yeah she's all in!

Courtney said...

I'm quite a fan of Tomi's. She's pretty funtastic. So are every single one of you.
*This comment contains no pertinent information. Just the truth.

Alysia said...

I would totally "like" that last comment if I could HAHA!!
well the new adjective part :D
I could talk to James, but I'll have to get on my mom's good side first... If not, kinkos is a good cheapish substitute
Emms and I could lead the meeting, I don't kno how many people are going to be there tho... possibly just the officers... no... some others said they wanted to help right? idk... anyway it should go pretty quick
OH!! and I was thinkin that because the van is usually dewy in the mornings and we are using paper we should make the stuff tomorrow and just put it on the van friday when we are in line or getting in line or whatever. just to save the decorations from being destroyed by the water. we can make sure it'll all look good on the van when I take charlee and most likely emms home too

Alysia said...

I typed a comment and when I posted it 3 more instantly popped up... I think Quinny and I could handle it :)

kendall said...

I am planning on being a vampire for the scooby doo float! And I also bout a couple bags of candy to throw. From kendall holcomb

Anonymous said...

Soooo... i think more people than just us should read this because it took an hour... anyways i think that i will be abl eto make it tomorrow and... yes... im tired so you guys are smart and ya...

Courtney said...

Thank you mucho gusto Alysia, Kendall, and anonymous! (Quinny?) Commenters are just plain great.
HINT HINT.

Anyway, thanks to everyone who is taking initiative for tomorrow, as well. Our float is really coming together!

Alysia said...

if you wanna use spanish court at least use it right :) mucho gusto is like... nice to meet you...
anyway, I don't think anyone else needs to buy candy because we went on an itsy bitsy shopping spree at the dollar tree and got like 12 bags of random candies

Alysia said...

OH and our float will be the BEST FLOAT IN THE HISTORY OF FLOATS!!! just fyi :D

Courtney said...

I speak Spanfranglinese. That's Spanish, French, English and Chinese. In case you were wondering.

Why do people not comment? We have fun in the comments... We have fun all the time, gosh dang it!

They actually have a competition for the best float, I'm pretty sure. Thespians won last year. ;]

Alysia said...

well I don't curr if they won last yerr, there were a lot of seniors that graduated right? well now we have amazing seniors ready to take on the homecoming parade... we also have amazing juniors and sophomores and a few freshman!!!
ours is going to be better than theirs last year because even the driver of the van is a character!!! that's me :)
oh and i agree, we do have lots of fun in the comments :D

we should make them read just one set of comments and then they might possibly check the blog every day...
OH HEY!!! what if we did like maestra thurber and print the blog. we shouldn't need the comments but if quinny could print it after she posts it then we could keep it in the box as well... just an idea

Courtney said...

... Okay, being totally honest, you sooo lost me. Haha.
You don't "curr" if they won last year? Je ne comprend pas.
Course our's is gonna be awesome! (Don't tell any Thesbos I said this, but I like DS's float better.)
And the flip is "maestro thurber"?
I'd be cool with that, but do you mean like a copy for everyone, or like one master copy for people to look at? Cuz copies for everyone every single meeting would be using a lot of paper, and could potentially be very stressful.

Alysia said...

i don't care "i don't curr"... no?
she's my spanish teacher and everyday she posts a blog then prints one copy and puts it up in the class room. yes i mean one copy to have for our DS box
OH and i'll keep my mouth shut about the float... the halloween room should have been scooby as well... just sayin... i'm fine with peter pan tho, he's chill :)

Courtney said...

OH! Care! You speak Apur-Magur-alese!
Mkay, I can dig it! I think organizing the box to make it more accessible would be a good idea. It's kind of a mess right now...
Peter Pan is fudging awesome! I love that boy, and he is my hero. We're gonna rock it no matter what we do.

Courtney said...

SUPER IMPORTANT! SPREAD THE WORD!

THERE WAS A MISPRINT IN THE ICC AGENDA AND WE ARE ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO MEET DOWN AT ALBERTSON'S AT 4, NOT 3!

I'm sending out a text right now, but if you know of someone who might not have found out, please let them now!
(P.S. How's the contact sheet coming along?)

Alysia said...

umm the sheet... it's printed but there's not electronic copy for everyone... i have a printed copy for everyone tho :)
