Update 12/1

Hey everyone! I hope you've had a lovely World AIDS Day! Pretty awesome assembly today, right? ;D

Just wanted to let everyone know what's been happening in fundraising land...
  • We are turning in the building-use form, announcement request and fliers tomorrow to get approved for the film fest. We'll make a Facebook event and copies of the fliers over the weekend and come Monday, it's go time for advertising! P.S. What movies are we showing? Our time slot is 3:15-7 p.m.
  • Lock in is not happening. It was a wonderful idea, but things just didn't work out. Now you guys have an idea under your belt for next year. Hopefully, we can still do a celebration type thing, or one last fundraiser, or SOMETHING to celebrate a semester well-done.
  • Drum rooooll... Our shirts and beads came in the mail today! In case some of you don't know, we now have hand-crafted bead necklaces from Uganda to sell. And blank t-shirts that we will spray paint with stencils to make them look super awesome.
Speaking of which, if you are an awesome conceptual artist, we would really appreciate it if you wanted to come up with sketches of possible t-shirt designs. We have a general idea, but we'd love new ones/input.

We're selling t-shirts for $5 each, and necklaces for $12 each. I think what we'll do is we'll get permission to set up a table at some of the lunches next week to sell these things. Here's some pictures of the beads, just to give you an idea...

Short-length triple strand...


Medium-length single strand...


Long single strand...

Also! CLUB PICTURE will be NEXT MEETING! Be there, or you won't be in the yearbook with our club!

Don't forget to comment! Thanks guys!

I'd be willing to sell them during lunch and promote the club. most likely buy some too.
I think another group had a long list of movies to choose from. I think to get the best outcome of people we should publicize a ton of different movies and then on movie night, the audience can vote on which ones of the listed they want to watch. (yay happy people?)
oh and I just added HiSpot to my favs :) now it's right next to my DSBlog fav and the one for the school... yea I'm lame some times... whatevs.
Oh yea, I'd be happy to help with the copies for the film festival and with making the shirts for sale. BTW what sizes do we have? and how many? I wonder if I could sell some to ACMA kids and ODS peeps as well :)
