Back Again...

This trimester we're continuing with SSS, with the same objective of having events/fundraisers to raise money for the scholarship program. 
There will be the expected Valentine's event and there was an idea of hosting a skate contest. This trimester we have 3 parent volunteers- Natasha, Debi and Jamie. This is really helping us stay on track and helps us reach out to the parent community. 
My goal for this trimester is the same as last, to delegate more and share the leadership role. I'm slowly disintegrating myself. Personally, SSS isn't difficult for me to handle at all. It's easy for me to organize and have the events but mostly I'm just kind of tired. Tired of the same things happening- lack of support, or certain reactions or blah blah. I feel kind of unmotivated, about school in general, but it is what it is and it's my responsibility so here I am trudging through day to day. I'm not really sure what's keeping me going at this point. 
That aside I hope to raise a good, certain amount of money (still undecided). 

In last Thursday's meeting we spoke about potential events for this trimester. We came up with a few. Then we started getting into the specifics of our first event, a beach day with a "snow day" theme. We will raise money through a BBQ, a percentage of surf lessons and activities. Hopefully this can be a fun communal activity which everyone attends. 

Below is the list of events (hopefully have more, but here are the realistic expectations):


January Saturday 25th- Beach Day
(BBQ, music, surf lessons, activities) 

February Friday 14th- Valentine's Dance and Candy Grams


Undecided but definitely an activity in March- Skate contest
