LAST MEETING OF THE YEAR

We will be having a meeting on Friday, June 13th. Please bring food so we can celebrate our accomplishments of this past year and look forward to the next. The meeting will end by 2:45pm.

Hope to see you there!

IMPORTANT!

DARFUR ACTION COMMITTEE MEETING FOR JUNE 6TH IS CANCELLED. I REPEAT, OUR "FINAL" MEETING ON JUNE 6TH HAS BEEN CANCELLED. 

Neither Mr. Cone nor Mrs. Donohue will be able to make it on Friday, so we have rescheduled our meeting/party for Monday, June 9th.  Please spread the word to everyone.

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.

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.

Notes from meeting on May 9th

Hi everyone,

Today's meeting was short, as many people were missing due to the AP U.S. History Exam. Here's what was discussed:

• The Dine-Around was a huge success, raising close to $900.
• Thank you's need to be signed that are to be sent to companies and people that donated food or goods for the event (Danielle is writing the thank you letters).
• If you have pictures from the Dine-Around, please bring them to school or send them to Ms. Donohue or Mr. Cone so they can possibly be used to accompany the write-up for the newspaper.
• An address for the company that we will purchase the solar cookers from needs to be passed along to Ms. Donohue or Mr. Cone so a check can be sent out (Scott will do this).
• Scavenger Hunt has been postponed until the fall.
• Pangea Day, "a global event bringing the world together through film in a world where people are often divided by borders, difference, and conflict" is taking place at HSE on Saturday, May 10th from 2:00-6:00pm. Go to www.pangeaday.com for details.
• A showing of the film, The Devil Came on Horseback, will be offered as a PIG Hours opportunity on Wednesday, June 4. The film will be shown in rooms F205 and F206 (Scott is making a flyer for the film).
• Next meeting is May 30th.
• End of the year projects, book keeping, and taking down Darfur Doors will be done in mid June.
• A party will take place during one of our last meetings.
