[Community-service] Community service group and all of its activities

Sat May 31 23:13:11 UTC 2014

Darian,

Thanks so much for this.  I've already signed up with Charlotte for the Service Project but I still need more information on the times because I have a very important seminar to get to after we get back to the hotel.  I also plan to be at the trivia contest because I love trivia and at the Business Meeting unless we have the California Caucus at the same time.  I really hope there's no conflict because I want to get involved with the Community Service Group and see it become a Division.  Thanks again.

Regards,

Denise

Hello everyone!
Thank you to those who made the call today.
  Here is what we talked about:

Two. We will be putting on two  concurrent sessions for youth. The first one will be from 11 AM to 12:15 PM and will be for 11-14-year-olds. The second session will be from 3:30 PM-4:4 5 PM and will be for ages 14-18. Both the service project and concurrent sessions will be on July 1. The service project taking place in the morning Three. Trivia night will be on Thursday, July 5. We will have two sessions with the first session being from 6:15-7:30 and the second session being from 7:45-9:00 Entry fee of $10 per person is being asked for, a portion of the proceeds will go towards funding programs of the division, and a portion of the proceeds will go towards the cash prize given to the winning team in each session We are working on a"bid for a buff would allow for teams to bid for the services/company of a federation leader for the duration of the Trivia evening

We have compiled a range of categories spanning from music, sports, technology, space, animals and more We are working on a formatting/scoring system to be used at the event Four. Are's seminar will take place on July 3 from 6:15-10 PM registration will start at 6:15 and at 6:25 we will have representatives from the Red Cross, hands on network, and Habitat for Humanity on hand to talk about their programs, and how you can get involved with them in your local community At 7 o'clock we will have the beginning of our formal agenda. Presenters such as Mark Riccobono, Kevan Worley, Sam Gleese members of the community service group blind AmeriCorps alumni, a representative from the Corporation for national and community service, San Francisco Lighthouse for the blind youth program, and a few of our 2014 national scholarship winners

 We will also have our division organizing meeting. This will include: approval of the Constitution, establishment of division dues , election of officers and a mapping out of the activities the division will take on during the coming year  Five. We will be raffling off tickets for a limousine ride on July 4, what better way could there possibly be to cruise the town and take in fireworks?… I didn't think so :-)  Keep a lookout for our special convention call to talk about what we plan on doing the entire week of convention and how you might get involved.
  Thanks for reading, talk to you soon!
