Meeting 2/7/13 and Donor Awareness Competition

Post date: Feb 8, 2013 1:42:11 AM

Hello everyone! There was an official HOSA meeting today as you all know, but we were less then pleasantly suprised to see that only a very small amount of members showed up, so here is a summary of the meeting for those of you that missed it for whatever reason.

Spring Conference Packets were handed out and discussed. Each packet includes the fees for Spring Conference and the (strict) uniform policy. Any person planning on attending the Spring Conf. that was absent or did not recieve one today needs one, and will be available from Mrs. Landry once more copies are made. The packets are due next friday, 2/15/2013.

Most importantly we had guest speaker Desiree Garcia from the New Life Society come in to discuss the upcoming Donor Awareness Competition. We will be working against Mountain Ridge HS HOSA to get the most people to sign up to be an organ donor in a one week time span (2/18 - 2/22). We have one week to get prepared for this event, possibly setting up a booth that way and getting word out about it, so please check your emails as we will be discussing lots about this event! Donation forms and advertising trinkets were given out this week; remember that you can discuss the event with your friends but do not sign someone up before 2/18!
