Meeting Summary - November 21, 2008

We had a very serious meeting today....all business! Here's what we discussed:

Comedy Hypnosis Recap/Debriefing:
- We raised $959 (this is the profit after paying Dr. Mike)

- We need to decide where to donate the money. Last year, we donated the money to HelpDarfurNow.org and we have also donated to the solar cookers. Please research potential beneficiaries and post your ideas on the bog. At our next meeting, December 12th, we'll make a decision.

- We also discussed the importance of staying in the jobs that were assigned to you. While the event went very well, there were some instances of people leaving their posts and even leaving money unattended. This cannot happen again.

- Also, for future events, please keep in mind that money is collected in different boxes for a reason. Please do not combine concessions money with admissions money, etc.

New Rules/Procedures:
- We discussed the fact that the club is quite numerous in members and, unfortunately, it is sometimes difficult to know everyone. Also, some students may show up for one meeting and then not attend again. When we hold events, we agreed that in order to work the event and/or recieve a "member discount" on admission, a student would need to have attended 50% of our previously scheduled meetings. The "member discount" would be usually half the price of admission (depending on the event) OR a member could contribute by baking, bringing a dish of food, or some other possible way.

Ideas for the next meeting:
- Discuss other people leading the meetings, possible news updates at the meetings, and other people doing these blog summaries.

- Start/continue planning the scavenger hunt, the Dine-Around, and other potential events.

- School Awareness will continue with the display at the next meeting too.

We are not meeting again until Friday, December 12th. That is two weeks away. From now until then, USE THE BLOG!!!
