2. Orientation
Potential Membership Letters: Lori Tate, Lynn Schuster, and potential
member Stephanie Jordan met the deadline of stuffing and
mailing the membership invitation letters. A total of 192 were
sent out on Sept. 6. A sign-up sheet for the orientation will be
hung on Mrs. Schumaker’s door for all those who wish to attend.
Orientation Date: Set for Wednesday, September 18, 2002; 1:30 - 2:30
p.m., with those helping to set-up arriving at 12:30. All
officers present at the orientation will be asked to stand and
introduce themselves and say why they are part of PTK.
Menu: Lori Tate will contact the school cafeteria to see if they can
make food trays for our orientation at a comparable price. She
will contact us with the information as soon as she receives
it. We all agreed that we should have the school cafeteria provide the
food if at all possible. If that doesn’t work out we will go
with our original food assignments.
Induction Ceremony: Date set for Saturday, September 28, 2002 at 10
a.m., with those helping to set-up arriving at 8:30 a.m. Lori
has volunteered to get the flowers for the ceremony and other
assignments will be made at the next meeting. Since our topic for
the speaker will be health the 1st choice for a guest speaker is Jamie
Stanley and 2nd choice is Millie Gillion. Lori will ask Jamie
and if need be Lynn will ask Millie.
2. Meetings
Our next meeting will be September 23, 2002 at 12 noon.
3. Chapter News
Attendance: Lori will get approval for posters to place around the
school informing members of meeting times and upcoming events.
It was suggested that the small calendar that Lori made us be
enlarged and also placed on bulletin boards to encourage attendance.
That was agreed on by all members present. Lee Haskins
suggested that we form a committee at a later date to help
advertise our events to all students. Lori Tate made a suggestion
that we could set up a table during the orientation to ask potential
members what they can help with and place them on a committee
right away. Mrs. Schumaker gave us the phrase: PARTICIPATION =
ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP = SCHOLARSHIPS
Web-site: Lee Haskins informed us that he should have the web-site
ready by October 1st. He has the frame work for it set up now.
He requested that information for the web-site be e-mailed to
him at [email protected]. The PTK official web-site can now be
viewed at geocities.com/ptkxixi. It looks wonderful. Great job Lee!!
4. Student Government
Bob Quin filled out all necessary paperwork to register our club with the
Student Government. Lee Haskins will be our connection with
the Student Government in keeping them informed of our
activities. Mrs. Schumaker requested that the Student Government
keep us informed when things are required from our club to be in
compliance with school rules. Lee will work on that for us.
5. Community Service Project
School supplies: Lori Tate informed us of the information she found
out during her school supply survey. All Neosho schools seem
to be taken care of. It was agreed that we should continue to
help just Goodman, because their need seem to fall in the cracks.
We are still considering placing collection boxes around the
school and asking for extra school items from Crowder students
and also tenderly used back-packs.
Trash pick-up: Even though our meeting times have changed Lee Haskins
proposed that we leave our trash pick-up time as originally
scheduled on Wednesday, October 9, at 1:30 p.m. Shirley
Armstrong seconded the motion and all present were in favor.
6. Fund Raiser
Bake Sale: Bob Quin proposed that we move the dates of the bake sale
back by one week to October 14-16. We realized that the week
of the original dates was too crowded for us and this would
give new members a chance to participate. Lee Haskins seconded the
proposal and all were in favor. Lynn Schuster will make
monster cookies and Lori Tate will package them attractively
to be used for our cookie gram.
Shirley Armstrong motioned to close the meeting and Bob Quin seconded it.
