Relay for Life Meeting


Hey everyone,

We had a meeting last night for the Relay For Life. Santesh, Andrew and I attended. We decided to do 2 things to earn money during the event. One is we're taking the robot and charging to have kids, or adults, shoot baskets with the robot. The other is we're selling baked goods. I told Santesh and Andrew if they build a cookie cutter and/or small brownie/cake pan that is robot shaped, that would be awesome (nudge, nudge to the team). So, I plan on baking for the team to sell it at the event to make money for our team. Not only are you supporting a great cause but there are incentives for raising money. So please, please, please keep up the fundraising efforts!
I hope to be baking Wed, June 6th and Thursday June 7th for the event on the 8th and 9th. If anyone would like to help, kids or parents, it would be GREATLY appreciated. I'll also be looking for donations of baking stuff (flour, sugar, eggs, etc....) so please keep that in mind. I will send out an e-mail a little closer to the date. 
Also, I believe Santesh has a small tent for the event but it would be nice if we could find some kind of canopy or something to cover us in case of rain. If you have one or know anyone that wouldn't mind letting us borrow it for the event, please let me know.

I just want to say thank you for all the support of our parents and families. You have really stepped up and we wouldn't be able to do it without you! Thank you!
Please feel free to call me or e-mail me with any questions or concerns.

Awards Dinner Planning

Hi Everyone,

I have made a decision. We're going to have a dinner, with everyone coming bringing a dish, along with awards in the commons area at Appoquinimink High School. Now we need to give them a date ahead of time, so how does Tuesday night, May 29th or Thursday night, May 31st work for everyone? It would be from 6pm to either 8pm or 9pm. As for the bonfire, that will have to be done at a different date to Adam's discretion and planning as it would be at his house. any nights sound better than the other for everyone? I'm sorry for all the confusion but it's so hard to plan a date for everyone to make it and we really want the whole team there if we can! Thanks.
