Meeting Info 10/14/08
Hey Spanish Club Members!!
I am so proud of you guys for being so productive today!
We decided that for our first community service project, we are going to work towards hosting and publicizing a fund raiser at a Hispanic Restaurant in order to raise money for Mike Fisher, who suffers from cancer of the brain. Because he doesn't want to risk going blind from chemo, he is trying a radical new treatment that his insurance won't pay for. He needs to raise $50,000 in order to pay for the treatment, and we want to help!
Please pay attention to the blog and your emails for the dates, times, and ways you can help!
Also, we decided to have a luncheon next Tuesday during lunch, in Room B10. Cost is $3 per plate, and we will have tons of delicious foods, such as chicken, quesadillas, horchata, and more. First come, first sirve!!
See you all next week!

Meeting 10/7
Hey Guys!
We had fun today. We ate chips and salsa, and started up on our ideas for a community service project. So far, all I have is that we might volunteer in a place that allows for us to talk to Spanish speaking people, or we will collect supplies for donation to areas that need it. If you have ideas, please come to the next meeting with them!!
On Tuesday, 10/14/08, we will begin looking at the Peruvian culture. We will also look at dates for our first dinner, and discuss the luncheon we will be hosting the following Tuesday (10/21). Please come prepared to share and discuss!!
We will also being offering free tutoring to students on Tuesday 10/14. If you need tutoring, or want to help tutor, please come to the meeting!
See you then!

First Meeting 9/30/08
Hey Spanish Club Members!!
Our first meeting, despite being a little small, was a success! Those of you who came found out what to expect from the club this year. Here's a recap:
We will have 1-2 luncheons (where leadership brings in food and members pay $3 per plate) per month.
We will try to have 4-5 dinners this year. Last year we tried Peruvian, Mexican, Argentinean, and other types of food. We hope to get an equal diversity this year as well!!
We are still accepting suggestions for our community service project. We want to do something that will either directly help the community around us, or in the long term, residents of a spanish speaking country around the world. Some ideas already are: raising funds to help the Red Cross in that country, collecting canned foods for donation, collecting old clothes for donation, and volunteering at hospitals and talking to spanish speaking patients. If you have any ideas, please bring them to the next meeting or let me know by email!!!
If you want tutoring from the members of Spanish Club, please come to the next meeting with your homework, tests, etc., prepared. We will group students from the same class with a member of Spanish club who tutors and start on a weekly basis.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at RobynMonroe@gmail.com
