Meeting Cancelled

Hey there everyone,

 

First of all: so we've doubled checked with the Boys and Girls Club and it turns out that the club closes at 6:00 pm over the holidays and do not resume their normal hours until January 3rd.

 

This means that the meetings on December 21 and 28 are cancelled. We know that this also means that we've cancelled every meetings in December and we apologize for that. With our meeting place closed, and a number of members away, we really feel that the best solution is to close for the holidays, and come back strong in the new decade. (Reschedueling at the Boys and Girls Club is not possible, and looking into alternative meeting spaces such as the Central library: the cheapest non-profit rate for a room big enough for all of us is $ 50. And for those thinking about "loitering" at the mall so we can beat up Mr. Frumpy the mall cop: NO. We are a nice bunch of teenagers =)

 

With all our meetings this month eaten up by snow and holiday hours, we're having a little change of plans. Instead of signing up for teams at the next meeting, we would like everyone to please email us their top 3 team choices by December 28. And if you're still interested in leading a team, but you haven't already let us know, please do so.

---Teams will be made before our next meeting so that we can get right down to work on our next meeting. Team leaders will be notified in advance so they can prepare research that needs to be done and plan for how their team will use the time at the meeting. Our next meeting is on January 4th, 2011- same place, same time.

 

again our teams are:

Art Project - this team will be led by Ming, and will take on larger roles after February. The current goal is to communicate with our local high schools, and  promote general interest.

Walk around the Block - responsible for organizing phase I, the publicity/legality etc. for the clothing walk

Race/Activity - responsible for organizing phase II, the activities/Carnival at Banting,

Clothing Collection - responsible for organizing clothing collection to be used in phase I and II

Also, if anyone have ideas, suggestions, questions or comments regarding our clothing drive/art project or anything in general please let us know via email or phone.

Secondly: Don't forget that we are volunteering at Metropolitan United Church this Wednesday the 22nd from 8:30-10:00. Please tell us if you can or cannot come!

And last but not least: Merry Christmas to all! =D May the new decade bring nothing but joy and laughter to everyone and their families!  

 

//Sophia and Taylor are pumped for volunteering on Wednesday!
