Hey Guys, lots of you were away for various things this week (awards night and such). So here's what you missed! 1) Introduction - Favourite thing about fall. 2) Purple Pinky Project: - Tentative dates were chosen: April 9th for all elementary schools - April 9, 10, 11 for all high schools (over lunch hour) - Remember these dates are only tentative as we still need board approval! 3) Interact Leadership Camp - A one day camp is going to be put on on March 27th for grades 8-10 - A location still needs to be determined for this event - There will most likely be a free BBQ around Victoriaville for the afternoon, so somewhere in that vicinity would be nice - We also still need board approval for this event and parental consent forms to miss a day of school 4) New Ideas! - The idea of a Shoe Drive for people in Nicaragua came up - This event would involve Roteract and Interact - The goal is to collect 8000 pairs of shoes to send to Nicaragua to protect against bacterial diseases - There is also the possibility of a Roteract/Interact food drive this spring 5) Important Dates! - Oct 27th: Roteract Sandbags! - Sandbags will be filled on this day, lets all show up to help out Roteract who will be giving us $500 dollars (which we need!) - Nov 5th: Interact will be going to the shelter house on George St. to prepare and serve dinner - this takes place from about 5:30 - 9:00 - we will be going to this event with Jill's Rotary Club - Nov 16th & 17th: Rotary Exchange Weekend - All the exchange students from the district will be coming to Thunder Bay for the weekend! - Interact will do something fun with them on Friday night (bowling?) and then Saturday is the parade and party at Vanderwees - Book this weekend off work!!
