The Steller auction is only one month away and we need the support of the Advisory groups in the form of some sort of cool and interesting donation. You may choose to do a basket as many groups have traditionally done, or you may choose to branch out and come up with some other item or service that could earn money for the auction. Some ideas: create a piece of art together, creatively paint and decorate an old piece of furniture which one of your families might be able to donate or get something from a thrift store, Troy’s group made bird houses and painted them one year, auction off the advisory group for a specific job such as spring clean yard clean up. Another idea (this one is kind of complicated): ask for a monetary sponsorship (auction yourselves off) to go as a group to a charity or organization of your choice and volunteer. This way the school makes money, the students have a service opportunity, the organization benefits, and the person who buys it can write it off on their taxes. Win, win, win, win! Victoria Weindel can help organize. Ask the juniors in your group for more information.
The Nicaragua Travel Intensive will meet this Wednesday in the Art Room at noon. All intensive participants are expected to be there.
