Food Drive 2015 October 26-30   Planning Team and freshmen
-Goal and process of drive for UD: Goal 1,500 cans.  Process was not discussed.  We need to know
a. Where will the collection take place?  Student Center (inside, outside) Quad.  Ideas were given to have some boxes by chapel????
b. What will be the incentive if any?  Pizza lunch is not an option.  Out of uniform or extra out to lunch are, but someone has to talk to Coach T and Dr. Powell.
c. Grace will place flyers around campus this week.
Ideas:  
1,500 cans per grade.  Match by a grocery store.  Each grade must find a grocery partner.  A letter needs to be written to take to grocery stores if this idea is implemented
Can sculpture competitions

-MD Food Drive needs posters.  Prefects handling collection of cans but welcome UD helpers.  They will have house competitions with an incentive for the winning house.  MD YAC might be working on 

-LD and PD will count with UD students bringing posters, collecting and counting cans

2. City Care: Feeding the homeless with Mayflower On parking lot Church on 10/24.  Please let me know if you would like to attend that meal and if you are interested in bringing some students.  We encourage having students attend our meals (it’s usually a positive experience), but we asked that an adult be with the students at all times.)  If you plan to come, how many students would be attending?  We can’t have too many attending and still have meaningful duties for them to perform. Steve Newell snewell@cox.net
