CSI Meeting Minutes for 3/24/16
Introductions of our new officers
Reminder: don’t forget about the National Best Chapter Award next semester!
· Our chapter has been doing great things – our own journal, many trainings, fundraisers, etc.
Goals
· We hope that by the last meeting of this semester that you (the new officers) will be running it!
o We will connect with you all in the meantime and help you figure out what to do and transition into your new role
Wrapping up the Induction Ceremony
· Bethany & I (Maddison) need to get together to mail out certificates to those who could not be in attendance
CSI Hike Updates
· We are moving the hike to another date (4/09/16)
· 10am @ Fatman’s loop
· After the hike, we will probably get lunch together
o People who weren’t able to hike can then meet up at the lunch
· Counseling Representative! Start telling classes and whatnot.
o Sabrina: Can you start promoting this event to classrooms and all that jazz?
· Monica: put this event on Facebook & calendar!
End of the year celebration
· April 29th!
· Was anyone able to contact businesses for fundraiser donations? (fundraiser is for CSI to get more funds for future trainings and fun stuff next semester)
o Let’s keep trying! Be on the look-out please! (look for items for silent auction type stuff)
§ Bethany will be contacting Uptown Billiards
§ Molly will look into Late for the Train
· Mark: Have we ever considered soliciting CSI alumni?
o Send mailers out to them?
o Bethany: let me look into that
· Bethany: We could go to NAzCA for involvement too!
· Maddison: I will look into the possibility of renting the lawn for this celebration!
Stress Busters Update
· Dr. Surmitis gave the OK for the backrubs during class April 12th at 4pm! (room 201)
· Sabrina was spearheading this, but we aren’t sure what the status of this is and she is not at the meetings. Bethany: I will touch base with her and see where we are!
o We still need to contact stressbusters to see if they are okay with that time-frame.
CSI Yoga Session
· Going through NAU, it would cost us $50 to run this.
o Alternatives?
§ Molly: What about Katie Cass to run the class?
· Alexis: I have worked for National Parks Monument, and in the past we have had yoga classes there. I could look into this for next year!
Update on Foodbank and Humane Society?
· Mark: For the Foodbank, all we need to do is tell them how many people we will have with us, and then we need to choose 3 possible days.
o Available slots: Tuesday – Friday, 10am – 4pm
· Mark: I checked on the Humane Society and either we need to take that class OR we can take one dog out at a time in groups and walk them in the yard.
Fundraising
· Bethany: How many submissions do we have for the tee-shirt contest?
o Can we do a poll online with the images?
o Maddison to Monica: I will send you the images and you can do your Webmaster thing
· Bethany: Also, we have Chili’s as a fundraising option
o Monica: will you look into this?
