Peck Park Habitat Restoration 4/5/2014

Date: April 5, 2014
Time: 9:00am - 12:00pm
Officer(s) Attending:
Location: Down below

Hey guys! New quarter, new hours. I know you guys might be too busy "studying" for your upcoming exams but come to Peck Park Habitat Restoration on April 5th 2014! For those who are busy, try to "get it over with" the hours requirements by coming. It'll be fun. Trust. The best part is, WATER AND SNACKS WOULD BE PROVIDED. Who wouldn't want free food AND hours?


Anyways, don't leave your cabinet members lonely and come to work it. :') Remember to dress comfortably as you will be digging for weeds and other unwanted roots.

Updates [QUARTER 4]

To the people who did not attend the meeting or simply could not hear me (I'll try better next time), the new requirements are 3 hours and 3 meetings. We figured that this quarter will be pretty hectic due to AP testing, CSTs, and finals, so yeah, enjoy this quarter without having to stress about meeting the "dreadful" 5-hour requirement. However, the make-up policy still applies. So if you have to make up 2 hours, you will need to earn 5 hours by the end of the quarter.

Also, if you did not reach the requirements for last quarter, you cannot appeal to us cabinet members anymore (unless it is an incredibly valid reason). You did have the entire spring break to do so...

-Tran Lam

[Hours Update]

This is the final hours update for Quarter 3. Overall, 115 out of 139 members have met the requirements and are moving forward to Quarter 4. Congratulations and thank you for serving our community! To the people who did not earn at least 5 hours, comment here or message me (or other cabinet members) on Facebook and give us a valid reason for why you did not do so. Congrats Mason Tran for earning the most hours this quarter! Mason now holds the overachiever title. Who will earn it next quarter? ;)

If it rains it will be canceled but if it doesn't we'll still need some hardworking people out on the field ):< But to let you guys know ahead of time, the way you guys can determine whether or not the event is canceled by looking at the ground. If the ground is wet, CANCELED. Anyways, at this event, snacks and water will be provided like usual along with the necessary tools. Please dress APPROPRIATELY meaning closed-toed shoes and even if it doesn't rain, be prepared for such conditions.If you don't have any occurring events this Saturday, go help them out, provide some rides, etc. Go enviro!

Location: San Gabriel High School South Parking Lot 
Officer(s) Attending: Alan Duong, Nancy Lam

ITS SHOWTIME ENVIRO! One of the biggest events our club will be involved in will be THIS Saturday! Like stated above, this event will be held at our lovely South Parking Lot where we'd be teamed up with the other clubs on campus. In this event you guys will be either unloading E-waste from cars or directing traffic. And don't you forget to dress appropriately! Meaning, CLOSED-TOED SHOES! Saying this now so that you'll be thanking me later(OH ALAN! THE TV FELL ON MY FOOT!). No; none of that, only safety for all.  ):<

And why just give service that day? Be part of the E-waste donations! Let your family know about this event so that they can also rid of any unwanted electronics! Keep in mind however, that E-waste WILL NOT be taking appliances such as refrigerators, washers, and dryers due to the chemicals they contain. Everything else should be fine! 

 In addition to everything else, we will be having a STRICT rule of DOUBLE DIPPING. Meaning you cannot attend this service for more than just the organization you signed up for.

Anyways, I hope to see all your beautiful faces at the E-waste. Keep up the hard work at those recyclings and you can sign up below with your FULL name, ID and SHIFT! ;)

     Anyway, I should probably apologize for the month delay on bottle crushing, and I will. So I'm sorry. The Vincent Lugo Park Clean Up is not yet updated due to thanks to a certain someone, so by the time I get an opportunity to update it, I will.

     There really isn't much to say. Good luck potential candidates on your speech next Thursday!
