First Meeting, Fall 2013

Collegiate FFA had its first meeting this Monday, September 9. It was jolly good fun. Our ranks swelled with new recruits, and though we tried to scare them away with oddness and teasing, they seem to be tough. Which is good, since we have a lot for them to do.

• Greenhouse setup Sept 21 & 22
• We'll clean the place up, then plant. Don't worry, we'll let you go before the game starts. Sign up to help if you can.
• Community Service: Hands of Hope Food Bank  Sept. 28, 7:00 am
• Prepare boxes of food, bring them to the cars. It'll be a few hours only, and we can set up carpools if needed.
• Group events:
• Hike to the N- Oct. 5, 7:00 am. Just for fun.
• Tailgating- Nov 16th and 30th
• Other things in the works include pumpkin carving and bingo night.
• Urban roots job openings: you would plant greenhouses, work with the students, etc. Get contact info from Christy.
• Dues are $10 per person, we need them by October.

Next meeting Sept. 23, 7:30 in the Deans Conference room of FA. And...it's an ICE CREAM SOCIAL!!! We'll bring the ice cream, you bring the toppings. And enthusiasm. Not that it's hard to be enthusiastic about FFA at any time, but ice cream makes it easier still. So, yeah... Be there.
