Fall 2014 Activities:
1. We are
holding a club fundraising bake sale in the Fine Arts Breezeway on Monday
Oct 27th. (Times to be posted soon!)
We need volunteers to assist at the tables. Please contact the Club
Secretary, Jessica Mayo (see email link above) to sign up for spots.
We also need volunteers to bake treats for the bake sale. Items for
the bake sale should be brought in as individually wrapped items (wrapped
in saran wrap or other wrapping) for sale.
2. We are
having a Supply Drive for the Florence Area Human Society (FAHS)!
Donation boxes will be placed in departments around FMU campus for people
to drop off items from FAHS's "wish list" (see link for PDF
below). We need to post flyers around campus at least 1 week in advance
of putting boxes out (by Oct 20th). We need to get flyers approved by
Student Government BEFORE we can post them around campus. I'll need
volunteers to make this happen. Please contact me (Dr. Barbeau) or the
Club Secretary (Jessica Mayo) about helping get the flyers done, approved,
and posted on campus.

Here are Club members Reid Stephens and Cameron Leyers helping transport
all of the supplies raised from the drive to the FAHS. The shelter was
VERY happy to receive all of these things (see list below). After dropping
off the supplies we got to stay for a while and visit with puppies and
kitties. Fun!
All the supplies are taking up Dr. Barbeau's entire office!
