UPDATE- Summer 2011 Gameplan!:)

Hi LEOS!

We are hoping to have one more meeting before school is out.

Here is the tentative schedule for the summer meetings:

JUNE 22: BBQ/LEO Social at Mikayla's house at 1:00PM [club Bond Time... you know you love it baby lions!]
Agenda:
1. set calendar for the year as well as set date for Induction Ceremony (details to come)
-Calendar will include 1 club meeting and 1 Social (bond time) meeting per month.

JULY 20th: 1:00 PM-- location to be set at another date.
Agenda:
1. Set committee meetings [ how they are to be conducted, hand out "cheat sheets" for Roberts Rules of Order]

AUGUST 17: 1:00 PM--Location to be set at another date
Agenda:
1. Q&A about Roberts Rules, practice it.
2. Talk about/Set up volunteering for Rodeo in September
3. Prep for school year!

As far as how we'd like to run Leo club the next couple years (four semesters) is decide on a theme for that semester and incorporate each committee into that. For example, say our theme for Semester 1 of Junior year (2011-2012) was Cancer, Youth Committee could volunteer at St. Judes, Membership could host a seminar on Cancer (schoolwide) awareness, etc. We have four committee's: Youth, Community, International, and Membership. WE will discuss this over the summer. I just wanted to let that idea bounce around in yalls heads!

Good luck with Finals! Stay tuned for details on Summer Meetings and such!

I will be gone six weeks this summer abroad so Mikayla will be conducting the June and July meetings and I will be back in August. I'll have email, FB, and skype if you have quesitons!

Cheers,

Delaney :)

Lions/Leo Convention 09 APRIL 2011 Reminder/notes

Good morning to all,

Here's a recap of what Dick, Mikayla and I discussed yesterday.

First, I spoke with DG Pat, and Skip had asked him to participate. He was a little hesitant to say yes because there is a family wake scheduled, lots for family coming into town, and he did want to commit. That being said, if he has some free time in the morning, he might come over. He like our idea about the "Leo exchange" session.

Clubs will be bringing their banners to decorate the areas.

Mikayla will be checking on the invoice for the Janitor - need to have for Skip on Saturday ( I also mentioned this in my email to Mrs. Andrew this morning)

Loraine - emailed Mrs Andrew to check on setup of auditorium: 80-100 attendees (chair setup), audio and mic needed, need to be able to get into school around 7?30-&/45 for setup

Loraine - food (stopped at Louies after meeting) spoke with Penny, at this time confirmed food for 80 people. After registration on Saturday, we need to call her and change headcount if needed - only up, not down. They will setup around 11:30-11:45 (buffet style). Pizza, bread, salad, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Siera Mist. I told her we would bring water bottles (Marty - could you get these). They are also providing plates, napkins & utensils.

Cleanup after lunch - talked about asking everyone as they leave the area to clean off table and put chairs up (Mikayla will check with janitor to see if this is what they would liek us to do.

Registration table: Amanda & Delaney
-need to get birth month from each registrant, put on back of nametag (for mixer)

MC: Brady & Mikayla
-introduction
-acknowledge the Leo Advisor Convention Committee members

During the roll-out session - two Renaissance Leos will be leaders in the '"Leo Exchange" (replacing Robert's Rules)
-Purpose of Leo Clubs
-What is happening in communities
-Exchange what clubs have done in past
-open discussion time
-talk about International Opportunities

Clean up - I believe the Lone Star club plans on helping with clean up

Wow . . .I think this is about it, so if there is more, please let me know and I'll get it out to everyone

Have a great day, Loraine
