Thanks to Lola, Dima, Kim, Krista, Mandy, Mike, Ben, Katie, and my mom for helping out at our table during registration! We gave out over 300 mini-flyers, so hopefully we will have a few new members this year. :)

Our next goal is to make and put up posters around North. Dima has already started making them and we would like to get together before school starts to finish some and then hang them up.

Here is a website I found that has env. poster winners on it so perhaps we can look at them for inspiration:

Also, let's plan a date for the picnic. Does anyone have a prefer Saturday over Sunday or vice versa?

Awesome.

Welcome to the first Environmental Club blog!

The purpose of this blog is to keep people updated about activities in our club, to brainstorm ideas, to increase knowledge of worldwide environmental issues, and of course, to have fun. In the future, there will be many people allowed to post here which will also improve communication within our club.

Our first event of the year will be at Freshman Registration this Tuesday, August 17. We will have a table just outside of the main office and I am currently typing up a short flyer to hand out to interested freshmen. A major goal of this club for the year is to recruit underclassmen so that our club doesn't die next year when all of the seniors are gone.

I'll leave you with that for now, but feel free to post/comment. Who is in favor of an Environmental Club picnic?? :)
