- 6.Old Business:
International Convention
The Convention runs from Wednesday, April 11 to Saturday, April 14 but as the host region, we are asked to arrive on Tuesday the 10th to help set up. It will be at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville. Cost is $225.00 for registration if you register online by March 9 and $204.50 for the room per night (it occupies four so it could be split 4 ways). Our chapter can help with some expenses to reward those who have worked hard, but we want to spend some of our funds on spring inductees who can help carry on ATX’s work next year. If you want to attend, please inform Niki Adams, Elaine Harrah or Karen Quammen and our advisors and sign up on the PTK office door.
Our region is responsible for collecting pencils, pads, and other freebies, and stuffing goodie bags for thousands of delegates from around the world. If you know of any company or agency that might be willing to donate, please tell Karen, Niki, or Elaine. We can’t except stuff from 4-year colleges though. It can be as plain as pencils or as nice as jewelry and any number will be greatly appreciated. (You don’t have to collect thousands!) Any number will be appreciated.
Please put these dates on your calendars and be thinking of what we can sell to raise a lot of money (for our international convention in Nashville, especially). We agreed to ask for soft drinks (because of the ease) again--with sundaes as a backup request. But we cannot make this request yet. Or does anyone have a new idea that will make us money? We also agreed we should combine it with some sort of “door prize” as we did last year. We decided to make gift baskets.
*Family Night-Niki
* Date Night-Kristina
* Craft Basket-Michelle
* Grilling Basket-Kimberly
We need as many donations for these basket themes as we can. (Karen will provide boxes to put people’s choice of basket in)
- Convention Fundraisers
*What to sell at International for PSTCC? Blinky lights? Any ideas?!
* Water guns?
* Noise makers?
* Glo jewelry?
* Cell Phone Covers/Cases?
- Fundraising for the Convention- As a group we need to decide what will earn us the most money for this extraordinary expense (approximately $500 per member who goes for four nights). Current suggestions are Pellissippi Shirts (perhaps for faculty and staff), an auction, gift baskets, etc…
President Edwards has agreed to match what we raise.
- Pizza Sales
Pizza Sales- Regina Buckley (the advisor at the Division St. campus) still needs help and wants to know if any officers or members can help sell pizza there on Wednesdays for 30 minutes at lunch time. 11:30-12:00. (Or if anyone knows someone at Division St. who is a member they could talk to/ask.) - She has one worker, but she can only help on certain Wednesdays. If you can work during that time, you get two slices of free pizza and will enjoying getting to know other students and instructors who come through the line. (#971-5210)
- Spring Fling
Spring Fling- The Dates for Spring Fling are:
Blount Monday March 19
Division Wednesday March 21
Magnolia Monday March 26
Parkway Wednesday March 28
- Knoxville Youth Summit
Knoxville Youth Summit- Saturday, March 31. We still need help! Training for volunteers on Monday, March 26, 2007 at 6:30PM at the United Way building.
Niki Adams is a committee and board member for the Knoxville Youth Summit and is in need of help for some more people to serve on the committee. Needed are volunteers to serve as site leaders the day of the event which is Saturday, March 31. This is a good service project and involves leadership especially. If you are interested please let me know and I can let you know what you would be doing if you want to be a part of both or just one of these areas.
- Hoodies- You can still order hoodies for $25. There are also T-shirts for $15
- Meetings
Next Meeting? We’re going to try a dinner meeting at the Turkey Creek Panera Wednesday, April 4 at 6:30 p.m. Y’all come! (Dutch treat, of course).
