Topics that were discussed…

Flyers-we need them for the Car Wash, Interest Meeting, and Freshmen
Orientation

Applications will be turned into lounges, with another folder for extra
applications incase they are lost.  They are due September 25th, without
the money.  Information about the dues will be on the application,
but they will turn the money in on a later date (Oct 4) depending on what
they want.  We thought $6 would be the base fee, $10 if they want
a t-shirt/soffe shorts (that way if they only wanted one of the two they
could); $15 if they want a t-shirt and soffe shorts.

Soffe Shorts: On the waist band say "Keyettes 2002-2003" and on
the back say either "GIRLS ONLY" or "GIRLS RULE" Officers would like to
have shorts before the first meeting so the members can see the soffes
before they purchase them.

Idea of having a Keyette "SIB" program; match up the underclassmen with
upperclassmen.

Locker posters for members-for birthdays, good attendance, acceptance
into the club...

Want to try and have at least one out of school activity a month, attendance
being encouraged.

Possibility of permission forms online if the activities are during
8th period.

For the Sept 11th Free Car Wash, we need to make posters during lunch
sometime before the 15th of September; Also need a name and an organization
to donate the money to.

Car Wash will be at intersection of Old Keen Mill and Rolling Road
(The one with the cheesy Christmas decorations that are up year round…)
We also need to advertise for the Car Wash and encourage potential members
to come and help the cause.  *Megan is in charge of calling and verifying
with the gas station

We discussed the Interest Meeting and decided on making Peanut Butter
and Jelly sandwiches after a short introduction.  We wanted to briefly
tell them about the club, what we plan to do, and stress attendance. 
Information about applications, dues, shorts and shirts should also be
talked about.

Possibility of participating in Nite the Lite cancer walk- *Catherine
was going to get more information, and see if the Keyettes could have a
team and participate.

There was interest in helping out with the "Care-ival" *Marci will get
more information once it is set up about the Keyettes helping

CAMP HEMLOCK…*Mandy will call (impressive) and hopefully get that set
up.  Need money for the group to go and also need to know the time
we will be spending there

For the activities fair…we'd like a booth next to the Key Club's with
food and maybe music; need sheets to have people show interest, and also
need the actual date of the fair.

For a rainy day activity: Make cards for a purpose while watching a
movie.

Keyettes T-shirts…  Would like a "super-Keyette" (similar to superman
but cooler) design.  *Tina will talk with Courtney about getting the
design soon

Painting the ceiling Tiles---*Tina volunteered to write the proposal
for that, as well as painting the railings around the school.

We would like to set up the tour with the Groveton Elementary second
graders.  Need date for that.

Bake Sale Fundraiser:  Make the baked goods in the cafeteria during
8th period and sell before the football game.  Also have pizza; 
[I'm pretty sure you can get Papa Johns to sell you the pizzas for $5 each
if they know you're doing a fundraiser---I can look into that more and
see if we can get cheaper pizza so we can make a profit and also feed those
hungry freshmen]  Also need forks, napkins, and all the ingredients
to make items for the bake sale. *Kathryn will find recipes and help oversee
the baking.  We also need to figure out when we need to go to the
grocery store and buy what we need.  Need to make sure and give the
Finance Office enough time so we can get the money.  If this is successful
we can hopefully do it again during football season, or basketball of lacrosse
season.
<p>Keyette of the Month:&nbsp; Keyette member selected each month for having
good attendance.&nbsp; Other members who have good attendance will get
a little note and treat on their locker congratulating them on their perfect
attendance for the month.&nbsp; Their picture goes on the web page, and
the Keyette of the Month gets a special locker posters.&nbsp; *Catherine
and Kathryn were in charge of "treats" *Marci will keep track of attendance
<p>Bulletin Board-we'd like it to be bigger, and also have calendars with
the schedule of activities for that month that members can take home with
them.&nbsp; Also will have a picture of the Keyettes of the Month.
<p>Decided on no newsletter and no committees or chairs, officers can take
on the responsibilities that the chairs would assume, since we already
have 9 officers.
<p>Idea to make baskets with cards for new faculty members, filled with
office supplies and candy.&nbsp; *Tina and Marci will be in charge
<p>In November we'd like to make turkeys as an 8th period activity and
bring them to a nursing home after school to decorate with.
<p>Inductions:&nbsp; we need candles, home-baked cakes, flowers and something
to put the candles in so the wax won't drip everywhere.
<p>We thought about going to a food warehouse and help sort the food there.&nbsp;
*Marci and Kathryn knew of places and were going to get more information
[There's a food warehouse in Lorton-I'll get more info]
<p>We'd like to make the chocolate snowmen for teachers in December.
<p>A fun activity would be to play board games with children at a Children's
Hospital
Also---we'd like to make sure to make Mother's Day Gifts: this year
instead of flower pots, paint watering cans; Visit Joseph's Coat; and a
Water park as a fun activity (Wahoo); Also: Food sorting and reading books
to children in children's hospitals.
