Hello everyone,

We have a few announcements!

Big Event will be taking place on Saturday, April 18th. If you want to participate, you will need to go to the Volunteer and Service Learning Center office to register. Malori is our team leader, but there will also be an additional team leader at this site. Since the maximum number of volunteers for this site is 20, you will need to register as soon as possible. Our site is the Council of Neighborhoods, and we will be flowering and doing yard work. We will meet at UCO at 8am and then go to our site at 9am. It is expected to take up to 4 hours, but we suggest that you keep your schedule free through 2pm. If this site becomes full, you can still participate with another team for points! If you have any questions about Big Event, contact Malori.

If you are interested in an Executive Board position for the 2009-2010 year, you will need to fill out an application. The application is due by Monday, April 6th. You can give your application to an officer or e-mail it to us at uco.pds@gmail.com. The application can be found here.

Also, our next general meeting will be held on Friday, April 10th at 12pm. We will meet in room 202 in Howell Hall.

Here are some additional announcements:

Hello. My name is Kaela Davis and I currently serve as UCOSA Vice President. Pi Sigma Alpha and UCOSA are working together to coordinate an Easter Egg Hunt for children whose parents are deployed in the military and we need your help. We would like to have a variety of carnival style booths for the kids and parents to walk around and visit while they are waiting for their turn to participate in the Easter egg hunt. We are asking that you help us by sponsoring one of these booths.

The Easter Egg Hunt will be held on April 11, 2009 from 1-3. Each booth needs only 2 or 3 people working it and volunteers are more than welcome to come in shifts. Please please please help us make this a special day for the these children.

Below, I have listed the booths that we have thought of, but if you have an alternative idea for what your organization would like to do that is great!

Non Permanent Tattoo Station
4-5 Person Easter Egg Race
Easter Bunny bean bag toss
Pin the Tail on the Easter Bunny
Decorate Easter Egg Cookies
Guess the number of Tootsie Rolls in the Jar
Dig the Easter toy out of the sand
Color the Easter Egg Pages table
Face Painting Table
Put the Ring on the 2-Liter

If you would like to sign up to host one of these booths or have any questions please feel free to contact me by phone at 405-974-2937 or by email at KDavis40@uco.edu. I look forward to hearing from you.

Kaela Davis
