First Fundraiser!

There will be a fundraiser at the Saints game on August 20. We need 6 people to volunteer. The only problem is that 3 of those 6 need to be over 18 to serve alcohol (since beer is pretty popular at the Saints games). So if you're over 18 or you have a friend/sibling/parent/whatever that wants to help out, comment here or on the Facebook page or let me or Feven know! If you're under 18 you can still do it, but let us know soon because those will probably fill up faster!

First post!

A couple of members from the Executive Board had a quick planning meeting on August 10th. We mainly talked about what we want the year to look like, new fundraising ideas and what we'll do at the first few regular meetings of the year. We didn't really have anything groundbreaking, just regular logistical stuff that you gotta worry about so the first meeting runs smoothly.

The biggest change for next year (although most of you probably know about it already) is that we will be having an alternate schedule. It's really complicated so I won't try to explain it, but the gist of it is that there will be only one homeroom period per week that will last for something crazy-long like 90 minutes. There will be a specific block of time allotted for NHS meetings that shouldn't overlap with any of your other meetings (because lets face it, NHS is by far the most important meeting you go to).

I also invited all of the returning seniors that I have on facebook to our new facebook group. If I missed you or anyone else, please add them!

And here ends the first of many posts on the new NHS blog! I'll try to keep this blog pretty light-hearted (Meister blog 2.0) and funny and not just serious business.
