Sabrina: Let me know where I can find the logo for the YWCA because I looked online and did not have any luck-should we contact someone to find out their logo?? And I have another meeting with an agency tomorrow during the office hours so I will see you when you get done with yours!!

We need to make sure that the information that we are collecting when we visit agencies is in order and easily accessible. I was thinking that we should type out the notes we get from the meetings and get a binder to keep it all organized. Today I typed out my meeting notes and then the other brochures/info we receive I think we should create folders in the filing cabinet space we have to also keep that stuff organized. Let me know what everyone else thinks but for know I am going to keep my sheet that I typed out in my mailbox. Have a great day! ---Kelly---

Kelly In response, the flyer looks good, we just need to figure out the YWCA logo and add that. As I think I have included you in on, the Women's Self Defense club is on board and will work with us the night of the event I will be in on Thursday for a few minutes prior and definitly after my meeting with the Normal Public Library - they are right next to Hewett so I am not worried - but we can talk then!

Also, I have three agency meetings this week, one during my regular office hours on thursday, and two on friday afternoon. They are posted on the board in the office. By the board I copied what you need to fill out for the meetings. Nicole should I just e-mail you how much time I in meetings on friday (I don't think it'll be more that 2 hours). ~Sabrina

Hey girls, Harriet called and they have decided that we should donate the remaining 50 cookies we have. If anyone has ideas as to where we should donate them post those ideas here on Scratchpad. Or the other option would be to take them to one of the agencies we are going to be in contact with this week, so either way lets find a place to get those donated to asap!

And another thing, if you look on the desktop of this computer you will see a word document link for agency visits. That is a template of what we should be discussing when we go to visit places. Make sure we fill that out for reference/our own records. Have a great day girls!!

---Kelly---

Hey Sabrina, look at the flyer for the our event...I changed it up a little just to have the basic info on there. Do you like it or no, or make changes if you would if don't like something :) Let me know what else needs to get done. And Thursday since you are meeting at 2:30, are you coming in after the meeting?  If so then we can work on getting some more stuff done!! And finally, look at the email from Harriet subject *March* and whatever one works for you-I am free during our hours on Thursday, or after 12:15 on Friday, byeeee for now ---Kelly---

Hello Ladies, Chris: I did the Thank yous to Diana, the family, and kellys bakery, etc. Can you write the email thank yous to the students who came?

Also, I will not be able to work next monday March 5 at all because I will be interviewing at Kent Ohio for Grad school. Can anyone cover the hours of noon to 5pm I know kelly and chris are in some of the time but i just want to make you all aware. The same for monday after spring break the 19th i will be at Indiana State interviewing there! Thanks Dana

26 February 2007

Happy Monday All~

I can't help but notice that there aren't any responses posted on scratchpad. Hmm... what is the problem?

Chris or Dana: How are we doing with thank you notes? Those need to go out TODAY!

Also- I think you got Harriett's email about the girl who left her glasses. This also needs to be cleared up TODAY!

Sabrina or Kelly: Harriett is planning on a meeting to clear stuff up for March. In the mean time, are we planning on having a self-defense person come in? If so, let's get on top of that asap. Thanks!

All: Again, I can't help but notice my last two postings about picking agencies you want to visit have been completly ignored (with the exception of Kelly). I need feedback people. If you don't want to be part of this, tell me. I'm not in the business of wasting your time or mine.

Harriett will be in at 2pm if you need her. I have a meeting at 2pm with UPB and but will be back here after that.

'''***We are going to start signing in at 387 again. If forget to sign in you will NOT be paid for those hours. I suggest you write youself a note.''' We are also considering a daily log of activities to keep track of what is getting done on a daily basis. I'll keep you updated.

Also, begin thinking of a service project to go along with AIDSTOCK. Some examples are planned parenthood, Bromen, etc. We need to start moving on this so please think of some things that you would like to do!

22 February 2007

30 January 2007 Hello Girls, I called and talked to Kelly. She said that this is a busy week but if we would like to pre-order 100 cookies, we should do it soon. Also, if we ran out and needed more cookies ... it would take around 24hrs to get 50 cookies. She said that it takes a while to make and decorate, then they have to set prior to packaging them! I.E. 50 is the best she could do on a 24hrs turnaround time. Hope this helps ~Sabrina

Great job! Let's keep rollinggggggg :) Let's put our locations and dates on the flyers when they are finalized and get them printed. Let me know if you need help with printing.

THINGS TO BE DONE:

A PLACE TO SET UP FEB 8,9,13

Also*** Start flipping through the agency list to figure out which ones you want to go visit. *** Harriett wants that by the end of the week.

We will be selling on Feb 7 in those dorms from 11-4pm if we like. I also got the OK from Donna at watterson to be set up on the 12th from 11-5 in front of the stairs on the way to the food court.

Can someone make sure to work on the coffee cup sleeves and figure out the size it needs to be. Don't forget the edges need to be on a slant.

I also got a call from Donna from Watterson Towers and she dosent think that we can sit there because we would be in compition with Dinning services. She is going to call us back asap.

April Event-- AIDStock

Update: Diversity Advocacy is doing HIV testing in April. I have a meeting with Kelly-Anne from DA on Monday to get them on board with us. We should hear back from UPB today about working with them too. Cool beans.

When: Thursday, 19 April 2007

Where: Bowling and Billiard- activity room

Here is some more info on McLean County AIDS Task Force and the project.

McLean County AIDS Task Force (MCATF)

History : MCATF began in 1986 as an “agency representative” group with members from community groups dealing with HIV/AIDS. In 1988-1989, MCATF changed to an all-volunteer group so that it could begin offering client service such as “buddies” to people living with AIDS. Soon after that a hotline was added. Members would have calls forwarded to them at home during their shift of duty.

In the Fall of 1992, MCATF opened its present center in downtown Bloomington. Activities taking place in the center include trainings, meetings, and various prevention activities. In August 1997 MCATF began Connections Community Center.

'''What does MCATF do today? :''' Today’s MCATF is a multipurpose, all volunteer, community based, AIDS service organization. Education, service and advocacy are the cornerstones of all the work MCATF does. The primary service area includes McLean and Livingston Counties. Some activities take place in other central Illinois locations under prevention grant contracts awarded to MCATF.

MCATF is governed by its membership through the elected Board of Directors. Current standing committees include client services, information services, member services, and fund-raising.

Event Description: AIDStock The event will be a benefit concert for MCATF. The tentative plan is to hold the concert from about 6-10pm on 19 April 2007 at the Bowling and Billiards activity room. We are planning to have four to five local bands play (a variety of music- to be determined). As well as a mixture of smaller events while bands are setting up and breaking down their equipment. Ideas for this have included acapella groups, raffle drawing, and/ comedian. We are also planning on having some kind of educational bit about HIV/AIDS (a short bit) while thanking everyone for coming out. Food and drink are largely dependent on funds available. My apologies for the brief description, a lot of the details are yet to be determined. Groups collaborating with this project include the SVC, PRIDE, Diversity Advocacy (possibly making up their HIV testing bit that they didn’t get to do for World AIDS Day because of the snow), UPB, and the MCATF student outreach committee. *Note- last year the event was run on no budget and made about $700.
