Meeting 2/12 1pm-2pm
Members present: Jamie, Noah, Dr. S, Heidi, Grace

Hello, everyone, I hope you are enjoying this long weekend!

The result are in, we raised roughly $165 from the Krispy Kreme Doughnut sale!  Good job, guys! If anyone would like to take on a monthly or bi-weekly sale of doughnuts, please let us know.

We are going to have a mandatory meeting at the end of the winter quarter, which will cover important information about the brigade and remaining fundraising efforts before the trip.  Whether you are planning on going, hoping to go, or are still thinking about it, you must attend this meeting.  We have a Doodle Poll set up so that everyone can vote on when would be the best date/time.

Next Wednesday 2/26 we have another table event in the main quad during College Hour 12pm-1pm.  We need to coordinate having our banners and fliers displayed at the table, so we will be in contact via email regarding that.  Grace has generously offered to make little gift bags to hand out during the event.  Marcella has also graciously volunteered to make us an awesome tri-fold sign displaying photos of past brigades and fundraisers.  Thank you, You Two!

Our next fundraiser will be hosting a face-painting booth at San Francisco's Sunday Streets on the Embarcadero, the second Sunday in March 3/9.  The event itself is from 11am-4pm, and we will be notified of our booth's location a little closer to the event.   We would like to set up carpooling for anyone coming from the south bay/peninsula that would like to split driving and gas money.  Therefore, we have a sign-up sheet that includes volunteering at the event as well as coordinating carpools.  You are not required to participate in a carpool if you do not want to.
I have several questions that I have emailed to our rep for Sunday Street,s such as:
- Does Sunday Streets provide the tables, chairs, and canopy we will need?
- What is the car access like for this event?
- Timing: Do we have to check-in?  What is the best time to arrive?
- Do we carry out our own trash?
 - How many customers should we anticipate serving?
Please let us know if you have any more questions for our rep. or for us, regarding this event.

For those of you who sign up to volunteer at Sunday Streets with us, you should attend our face-painting practice meeting the Friday before, 3/7 from noon-2pm in Rm 5101.  During this meeting, we will practice face-painting technique as well as create our pricing sign ($5 suggested donation) and organizing our equipment.  Also, each volunteer needs to bring in 5 suggestions for girl designs and 5 suggestions for boy designs for us to vote on, as well as one roll of paper towels.  For the face-painting, we plan on using simple, decorative stamps to stamp the outline of the design on the customer's face and then color it in with the brush and paint.  If you do not want to be a face painter, there are other positions you could take on, such as crowd control and being in charge of the cash box.

Here is our shopping list for face-painting supplies.  Please let us know if we are missing anything.
- Order
- Paint (comes with brushes)
- Hypoallergenic stamp pad
- Brushes
- Cups for water
- Jugs with water
- Funnel  (will get from Bio stock room)
        - Makeup glitter

Drew has suggested that around St. Patrick's Day, we sell green-colored treats.  Due to health regulations and campus policies, we can really only sell items that are packaged or created by a certified and insured food distributor.  A couple of ideas of what to sell include green Otter Pops and Caramel Apple Pops. If you have any suggestions for this, please let us know!

We also have now created sponsorship levels for local and big businesses to support our club.  Please see the sponsorship flier for details on what each level provides the donor.  We also have a generic donations request letter that you may copy/paste to another Word document and edit as you see fit.

Thank you, see you later!
