Sponsor's report: Old and new business
1. Home Groups-First Home Groups meet Tuesday, October 6 E-day, A-Block. Mrs. Clay placed a sign letting freshman know the change of date, but some came to Harper. She apologized for the inconvenience and will bring a good snack to Service-learning Fridays.

Home group facilitators received the list of people who have signed-up so far and location of their meeting during A-Block, Tuesday, October 6. Fun, food, and friends with a purpose. Mrs. Clay will try to get all people who have not signed-up to do so this week.

2. YAC Open House - This item tabled for next meeting. We need to create a process for the YAC Open House. Maybe a scavenger hunt with a prize at the end!! YAC members stated last year that just coming to figure out where the office is and eat ice cream was not enough. We have pinwheels and freshman profiles at the library, a service-learning brochure, an office, several bulletin boards... to be featured in the scavenger hunt.

3. Volunteers Needed
a. Green Schools Pilot Program (Challenge 20/20)
b. World Neighbors World Fest (See details in bulletin board)
c. Sarah's Project: (See details in bulletin board)
d. Students Against Hunger: Casady Cans Do (Collection last week of October)
e. Dig Pink: Girls Volleyball Service Project: Fundraiser for breast cancer research is on the 13. Mrs. Clay will be walking/running on the 10th with interested advisees at a Breast Cancer Walk. Maybe YAC members could consider do so too with interested members of their advisories. It will be a good opportunity to get to know each other better and do something for a great cause. Here is the pertinent information to register, sent by Dr. Gerard:
