Hey everyone! for those of you who went to the
meeting last night, you heard that we need to decide soon who is going to New
Orleans over spring break. However, I got an email today saying that they want
to know tomorrow a general idea of who is interested. you don’t have to
completely commit to going, but please let me know if you are thinking about it.
Because we don’t have a staff member, we are technically not allowed to go
there, so Val is working on coordinating us with another small group so that we
will have a full time staff leader for the trip. For this reason, we need to
help her out by telling her an exact number of how many people are going by the
end of thanksgiving break. So if your considering it, send me an email by
tomorrow, then go home for break and think about it, pray, talk to your
family, etc. If you decide to definitely go I need to know by the end of
thanksgiving break. If you do not commit to it by the end of break, you may or
may not be able to go! so please let me know ASAP if you are planning on coming.
another reason we need to know is because I have to
apply for funding. The trip will cost about $400 a person, so we are hoping
uconn will pay the full amount to send us there. this means we need to apply
soon so they have time to process and think about it. it takes a lot of work to
go through the funding process, and even more work if we don’t know who is
actually coming! so please let me know ASAP! The ultimate goal is for you to be
able to go for free. don’t let money be an aspect in your decision, because if
all goes well, you will not have to pay anything.
to let me know if you are coming, or to ask for
more information, please don’t hit reply! email me at sarah...@hotmail.com
thanks! - Sarah
