Have an auction before or after the SRAEYC conference.  Auction items will include tickets to massages, toys, and other items.  We will need help manning the booth before and after the conference.  If you know someone who would like to donate items for the auction, talk to Jennifer or Aubrie.  We would love to have their donations.

Let Jennifer or Aubrie know if you have any idea’s.

We will do an outreach to High School’s Early Childhood Education Program later this year, or sometime next year.

·      Halloween Carnival

We are doing sensory tables with toys hidden underneath the sensory items. We will do shredded paper with coupons on the papers for the toys. The other table will have leaves.  Jasmine also suggested doing tattoo’s for older children, so that we will have two activities.  This will be on the 29^th of Oct.

Jasmine will be talking to administration about students dressing appropriately during the carnival.

·      Thanksgiving Food Drive

We will be talking to the other clubs about joining us in this challenge.  We will not be doing this until November.  We are considering taking the food to Idaho Food Drive.  Let us know if you know a great place to donate the food to.

·      School Supply Drive

This will be starting near the beginning of October.  Jasmine is running it.  She wants to collect art supplies for Head Start and other programs who do not have art supplies.
