Day 7 of Organization

Well, it snowed again today, but I got out and about on Main St. today. It wasn't snowing so hard today and I wore real shoes today.

We added a couple of new donors today and got set up for our organizational meeting. The global email with the press release went out today. I linked an events calendar onto the blog to keep everyone up to date. It's under our lists of donors. Our organizational meeting is going to be April 2nd at 4 p.m. in W167 at Sheridan College. Community members are welcome to attend. W167 is in the Whitney building across from Dave's office. I did find out his classes are covered, so there is no danger that anything will be canceled. I talked to Dave today and he continues to sound better. He's excited by how well things are going. I'm definitely excited by the way things are going. The response has been very enthusiastic and we've got some great stuff for raffle. We have an awesome prize that will be revealed later, so keep your eyes peeled. For the tournament, Wade at The Trophy Case in downtown Sheridan is going to donate three trophies for first, second and third place. So the winners will have a memento and memories.

There's another option for donation as well. Donations can be brought to the Writing Center on the campus and given directly to me or someone in the office.

I can't wait to get back to campus and really start networking with people. I'm so excited to see an idea I had while brushing my teeth beginning to come to fruition. I called John Molloy last Thursday and told him about my idea and he said we should get it going. So, in part thanks to his encouragement, I got it underway this week and more people will be coming on board next week.

I'm taking tomorrow off for the most part, but I may have some more to report over the weekend. Thanks for reading, and feel free to comment or email me at meglanker@hotmail.com.
