Meeting of October 26, 2007
Hello everyone. Here is a list of everything we talked about at the last meeting:
**Thanks to everyone who helped out at Willow Lane! Apparently, it went very well and included face painting.
**Every year the Ambassadors come up with a new t-shirt design. Although the designs won't be voted on for quite some time, anyone interested is encouraged to start sketching some ideas. If anyone wants to organize a committee to a design a t-shirt, he or she is more than welcome to do so.
**Student Council members visited us today!!! They informed us that they will be gone this coming Tuesday. Because of this, they will be unable to collect items for the WBL Foodshelf during the first part of first block. They asked us if we could take their place. All that would be required would be collecting the food items, placing them in boxes, and bringing them to the cafeteria. Anyone interested should come to Ms. Whitcomb's room at 7:15 on Tuesday. More specific details will be addressed there.
****Student Council also asked us to participate in the Trick or Can program. Any Ambassadors who want to go out on Halloween should bring their haul to either North or South Campus between 6 and 9 that evening. Otherwise, the cans may be brought to school the next day. As Maggie and Sasha reminded us, this would count as Ambassadors hours and NHS hours.
**WBL Rotary Strive Scholarship: The next race will be on Sunday, November 4th. Ambassadors will be in charge of staffing the water stop on South Shore Boulevard. We need about ten people to work this event from 11 to 2. If you are interested, please contact McKaela.
**Rotary Dinners with Santa: For this, volunteers would be asked to work a dinner while being dressed as Santa, Mrs. Clause, an elf, etc. There are two possibilities to participate. The first will be on Monday, December 17 at the Best Western in St. Cloud. The second will be on Tuesday, December 18 at the Country Inn on Highway 61. Those interested in the St. Cloud dinner would get a free room for the night and free phone use. If you do not have a suitable costume, one would be provided for you by the organizers.
**WBL Senior Center: We need Ambassadors to rake leaves for five senior citizens as soon as possible. Bags and rakes will be provided.
**Raking Opportunity #2: The lady who won the silent auction won our help in raking her yard this Sunday. There are currently enough people for this, but any additional help would be welcome--contact Penny if you are interested.
**Thanksgiving Meals on Wheels: Anyone interested contact Bill or Kaitlin.
**Before too long, we will be getting a group picture for the yearbook. In addition, people with cameras should take photos whenever they can, so that we have something else to put in the yearbook.
**If you haven't been getting emails from Ms. Newberg, please email her to get on the mailing list.
ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND
