- We received a very generous donation from Mrs. Judy Elias - $440.85
- Thank you letter for Mrs. Elias was written by Debbie which we all need to sign and the picture that we will give to her of our club together will be in Room F203 on Tuesday right after school. Please wear green.

- No meeting next week on Friday.
- Flyers need to be put up right after break to promote the club because new members are always welcome.
- AJC Solar Cooker Campaign, A Donation of $30 to buy one solar cooker, for more information go to www.ajc.org. We may do a donation in the future where we buy a certain amount of these solar cookers so we know that we are helping specific people in the refugee camps.
