Relay Update
YAY! We're currently in 5th for donations, just behind Semperian. Our team now officially has 5 members, and several more who have promised to join our team. Remember- each person who joins is not only going to help out with the fundraising, but more members means less walking time per member. (in theory)It's too early to sign up for your "walking time" just yet. Please don't ask me to reserve a spot for you or keep track of your preference just yet. I'll make a post for that and you can reply in a comment with your desired spot and walking time.
Semperian just finished a Huge fundraiser, so I'm expecting them to jump even further up in the ratings very soon. We have $150 and that's a great start!
In case anyone's wondering, I'm in Customer Service- the call center, in building C. I'll be helping out accounting starting next week (yay!) in building E. I'm pretty well tied to my desk 8 hours a day since we're running with minimal staffing. After work, I have a 2 year old and a husband I care for, and we only have 1 car. I'm doing all I can. It's just slow going. Just know I'm doing all I can to help keep this going, and if I can manage to fit this in my schedule- trust me, anyone can.
Bethany emailed and said there are fliers and promotional materials I can pick up from ACS. I don't see anything on their website. Spoke with "Tinker," who is the local contact. There is NO age limit. Anybody under 16 just needs to sign a "youth release form" in order to participate, and must have a chaperone available.
OH! And I'm supposed to attend Team Leader meetings. Oops :) No clue.
I was supposed to get a Team Leader Packet, it just hasn't been processed yet. I'm to go down to the local ACS to snag that as well as supplies. That sounds encouraging! They're the 3rd Wednesday of every month at EWEB at 6pm.
ACS is in the office building between and behind Trader Joe's and Pier 1 at2350 OakMont Way #200 upstairs, hours are 8:30-5pm M-F, but gone next Tuesday. My working hours are 8-5 so I had to take some time off to go do this. Fortunately my supervisor Bev has a great sense of humor :)
I grabbed all the forms/posters etc and I'm all set and ready to go. March will be our month for promoting awareness for the Relay for Life and getting more members on our team.
YAY!
I propose a meeting next week after my Wednesday meeting, so I'll be really prepared. I'm going to say let's meet on Thursday at 7pm at the Shari's on W11th. Spread the date/time. I'll post meeting notes for anyone who isn't able to come. I'll have signup sheets for those unable to do it themselves online and a couple of fundraising ideas I've been kicking around.
Hoping to hear your great ideas and get to know you better! :)
