<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Minutes from Previous School Years: <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Can we please put anything that happens on the **//WEDNESDAY//** meetings on this page so those that miss can read it and we can continue conversations. It would also help as a reminder of what needs to be accomplished.If anyone has a topic that they believe needs to be discussed at the next meeting please place it in the discussion box.**__Wednesday, December 1st.__**So we are going to ask Leadership for when we can do it. We are trying to get it for most of December. We are planning on doing 3 people per session and mainly for lunch. WE are going to give money from the bricks for the school and on the bunny it is for the livestock. Advertising for as a present idea. Bunnies go alone and the bricks go with a cup. They are both gonna be $5 and we are going to give a certificate with each one. **__Wednesday, Novemeber 24.__**Today we discussed about the "kids for kids" donation set-up. People would donate to us and when we got $50 we could buy a goat (kid as in a baby goat) for Equador. So as I already put a goat would be $50 each. Were hoping to buy stuffies (or buddies, beanies or something of the sort, maybe snubbies?) for a small amount of money (hopefully about $5-$10 per thingy.)...We are hoping to get beanies to represent them, but if needed plastic toys. This might be a bit expensive, but it will be nice to display it. We need to have someone design a certificate for buying a goat so they can hang it on the wall or display it in some fashion. We will add on the cost of the beanies so we are not losing any money. We are not planning on concession, but this is up for discussion, they are very difficult to do, it drains people, and makes it hard with rides. So we are planning on avoiding on doing them, but it is still a potential. When they buy a brick they also receive a free thurber cup. This will help us deplete our storage of cups and help promote the selling of cups.__**Wednesday, November 17.**__Deciding if we want to participate in the Vow of Silence that is worldwide on Friday. It seems better to do it a different day for money. Maybe get your teachers to pay you to be quiet. Or your siblings, or even your parents. We want to the bricks for Christmas during the 12 days of Christmas. We will sell them, the customer will decorate it, return the brick, and we build a building! We are thinking that the bricks will be $5, and the bricks can be decorated with sharpies and stickers. The bricks will be 2"x2"x4". We will give out certificates of recognition.__**Wednesday, November 3rd.**__The concession shifts areFriday- 3:15-7 Taylor, Melissa, CaseySaturday- 9-12 Dalton and Catherine12-3 Kathleen and friends3-6 Sahil and Kathleen until relief shows up from CalgaryMs Burley Cell is.....................9-1-1 run away, run away, she is chasing me with a shoe the horror, the horror.
