  1. Below is Jerry's thank you.  City Year would be interested in partnering with us again.  I also sent Jerry what I could find on our hastag #Food_ASAP (https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Food_ASAP&src=hash).  Jerry mentioned that these was the other food options:  "We had 500 hamburgers and pizzas, 250 cupcakes from red velvet and sprinkles, 15 pizzas and 3 platters of fries and chicken tenders."
 
  1. Our next call is set for Thursday, May 30th at 7pm, using the conference call-in line.
 
  1. If Jen could confirm with DC Central Kitchen and/or OSSE that they are dropping off the educational materials to Kelly Miller On Wednesday, and send Jean the list of approved questions/talking points, we should be set.  Chasity can send that information unto KM administrators.  Can someone volunteer to tweet that day?
 
  1. Karla will check on Monday night if there are any other volunteers that are interested in coming on the 29th.
 
  1. Jean will send thank you to donors, and Jen to send thank-yous to volunteers.  Rob will find out the name of the guy who showed up at the end.
 
  1. Rob will check with Kezia on the June Brunch details and on what we are expected to do for the presentation.

 

  1. Extra money will be given to DC Central Kitchen. Jen will see if her company can help match.
I think that was it!

Subject: Spring Fling Thank You!!!
 
 
 
Thank you from the City Year teams at CW Harris and Kelly Miller Middle School for attending Spring Fling at Kelly Miller Middle School on May 18th. It was truly a successful event having over 275 students, parents, teachers, and community members. Including all the organizations and volunteers, there was over 300 attendees.
 
It was great having you at our event and we would love to collaborate more with your organization in the future. If you are interested please contact me.
 
Thanks again for your attendance!!

Good Evening Everyone!

I hope that you all had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend, and that it wasn't too tough getting back into the groove today ;)

I just wanted to double check and make sure that things were squared away for tomorrow -- did we confirm the volunteers that will be at Kelly Miller tomorrow?

Also, although I won't be able to make it to KM I have no problem with live tweeting during the table sitting. 


Please let me know if there are any particular messages you would like to forward from my personal Twitter account to promote tomorrow's event. Thanks so much, and I hope you all have a wonderful evening!

Hi all,

 

So how’d it go today?  Hope everything went well.  J 

 

I checked company policy, and my company won’t match donations for this particular cause, unfortunately.  I sent the thank you notes to the volunteers this past weekend.

 

Talk to you all tomorrow!

 

Jen

Hi everyone!  

Today went well.  I got to talk to almost every kid.  I sent some pictures via my iPhone to Kezia and Chasity-- but I had problems with the emails going through.  I will try to send tomorrow.  DC Central Kitchen also sent a photographer out so hopeful they will send me the pics soon too .

I am leaving DC for 10 days on Friday night... Did Y'all met last week?  Or is there another meeting scheduled before the brunch?

Hi Jean,

 

We didn’t meet last week, and we’re not meeting this week.  I thought we had a team call tomorrow night at 7 PM though just to get caught up. 

 

Should we send you the total number of hours we spent on this project?

 

Jen

Thanks so much for volunteering to do this, Jean!  Your and this team's efforts are greatly appreciated.  I will load the tweets this morning to the CC account :-)

By chance, can you provide a # of the children who were served yesterday and send a brief write-up on your experience for posting to our blog.

Hey all!
 
I would suggest we meet or conference call the week of June 10th then....I'll be out of town and am trying to wrap things up at work tonight before I head out tomorrow afternoon.
 
In the meantime, Rob, can you ask Kezia about if we can show the pictures we get from DCCK and my phone into some sort of diplay at the brunch?  I think they ahd somethign like that last year.....
