Great First Meeting!
Once again, it looks like we are going to have a nice crew of people to help those in Darfur. Below is a summary of what we discussed:
- For those who are new to the group, next week we will take some time to do an overview of the origins of the conflict and where it's at now.
- We recapped the activities and accomplishments that DAC had last year.
- A poster was made by Jackie that will be displayed in a frame in the hall soon.
- Dan has agreed to be the point person for getting announcements made on the PA.
- Everyone can feel free to make flyers promoting the club and our activities. Just bring one and I'll get copies made. At any point, feel free to stop by F206 to see if any flyers need to be hung up.
- Safe Halloween - Unfortunately, Mr. Cone and I will not be around on Halloween. For next Friday, try to have ideas of other ways to get the word out to the community (pamphlets on a table, in bags, handed out by members in the hall, etc.)
- Last year we had a successful Comedy Hypnosis fundraiser. We will look to do that again soon. Possible dates are November 7th and November 14th (both Fridays).
- We would like to make the scavenger hunt fundraiser happen this year. More to be discussed.
- Ginny mentioned a charity to keep in mind - Nothing But Nets
- We discussed the possible disbursement of funds to help the school purchase a "Visitors" sign. The consensus was that funds raised in the name of Darfur should go directly to charities to help the cause.
We will meet next Friday, October 3rd. PLEASE WEAR A GREEN SHIRT. We need to take a group photo for the Pep Rally.

Meeting Summary
Where were all of you today? 8 very cool people came to the meeting but YOU were not here and YOU were missed.
Look out for the Smithtown News - there MAY be an article about the activities that the club did this year. I sent him photos too.
Tuesday, June 3rd is the PIG Credit movie showing of The Devil Came on Horseback. Flyers were hung up today and we are ordering pizza to sell for Tuesday after school.
Next Friday will be our final meeting and we have some work to do:
- Darfur Doors need to be taken down neatly so we can save them.
- Thank you's need to go out to the restaurants who donated food for the Dine Around. Harrini is writing a letter and we will sign them next Friday and get them in the mail.
- We will also discuss plans for next year and ways to organize what we did this year (binders).
- Bring food and we will eat! Post here on the blog what you are bringing.

Advertising The Movie and Pizza event
I finished the edited version of the flyer for the Devil Came On Horseback. We just have to make copies of it and have people hang them up around the school.
