Service Hours Update - November 16th, 2013

 [Right, well anyway...]

     Aside from me whining about the amount of people in this club, I am finally on time! Sort of! I still hit the deadline for my this update, so I think I don't deserve to die this time. The only thing I'm possibly late on is bottle crushing. But you guys'll forgive me, right? After all, I am being extra generous with Bottle Crushing hours.

 ----------

     So without further ado, the services that I updated include:

          1.) Recycling/Project Reach Services on:

               - November 8th, 2013

               - November 15th, 2013

          2.) Club Meetings on:

               - October 31st, 2013

               - November 7th, 2013

               - November 14th, 2013

          3.) Habitat Restoration on November 2nd, 2013

          4.) PTSA Service on November 9th, 2013

          5.) Garvey Park Clean-Up on November 11th, 2013

          6.) Bottle Crushing from October 18th to November 15th, 2013

----------

     I changed and did a little house keeping in our hours sheet; I moved the people who were removed from the club to the bottom of the sheet to make things a little bit easier for me when I'm scrolling up and down the page. I'm only keeping their names around for when Los Renombrados swings around next year and the Juniors get hungry for their hours; and or whenever people need their hours for college applications. I'm not cruel enough to publicly shame people, guys.

     Another thing to mention, since I wasn't at the service and I didn't make the Sign-In sheets that day,I think I am missing an entire sign in sheet for the Recycling on November 8th. So if a good number of you are missing your hours for the service, I'll know something is up. Remember, notify me! Be the ambassador! I don't bite. Actually none of us do  except maybe Kristy.

     Also, the little asterisks next to the highlighted names of people mean that they are immune to club meetings due to MoMa, or other disturbances that get in the way of our club meetings. Freshmen are naturally immune to this because all of them have to attend MoMa meetings every so often on Thursdays. Poor, poor Freshmen. Still, just because you are immune to the meeting requirement doesn't mean you shouldn't skip out when you don't have the meetings. That's bad. You all want to be good boys and girls, right?

     Right?

     *Obligatory Disclaimer: Feel free for check for any silly mistakes and stuff that I might've done wrong. If I did miss anything, go ahead and tell me on Facebook or eMail us at sghsenvironmental@gmail.com. I'll double check and fix it ASAP.

Service Hours Update - October 30th, 2013

[Late, late. I am so late.]

     First of all, let me apologize for how late I am in making this post. I've been really lazy recently and just, eh. Okay alright I won't make any excuses I'm sorry. Three weeks have passed and I'm supposed to be making them every two weeks. Slap me.

----------

     Now that that's out of the way, let's see what's been updated as of late:

          1.) Recycling/Project Reach Services on:

               - October 4th, 2013

               - October 18th, 2013

               - October 25th, 2013

          2.) Club Meetings on:

               - October 3rd, 2013

               - October 10th, 2013

               - October 17th, 2013

               - October 24th, 2013

          3.) E-Waste Service on:

               - October 12th, 2013

          4.) Almansor Park clean up on:

               - October 13th, 2013

          5.) Bottle Crushing has been updated as of October 18th, 2013.

----------

     That is one huge list. This is exactly what happens when I don't keep things updated. Anyway, a few words before I end this certain reminder. I'm sure a lot of you guys already know this, but the meetings that you folks attend don't give any sort of hours. Some of you operate under the assumption of that and it only ends in your doom. Of course I still have the ability to reinstate you guys into the club, if you really want to stay. Just now I put someone back into the club. Of course you need a legit excuse and you gotta make us feel sorry for you. Remember we're only booting people because they can't uphold their own responsibilities due to excessive lethargy. For those of you who weren't informed of your apparent booting and went to recycling anyway, I still added an hour onto your quarter 1 hours because you performed labor anyway. I won't be adding to your hours anymore after that week, so make sure if you're still in the club or not.

     Anyway congratulations to all of you that survived this First Quarter. I'll be looking forward to working with all of you guys for my last term in office.

Your Secretary,

Maknoon

P.S. I promise I'll collect Bottle Crushing hours this week~

HABITAT RESTORATION NOV 2, 2013

Date: Nov 2, 2013

Time: 9am- 12pm 

Location: Peck Park Conservation Park, 5401 N. Peck Rd Arcadia, CA 91006

If you haven't gone to one of the best events ever, Habitat Restoration, you should! If you have already, go again! This is a great way to complete 3/5 hours for the second quarter.

Hello Environmentalists; we'll be tending to the magnificent Peck Park's environment under Amigos de Los Rios.

Dress accordingly (something you don't mind getting dirty, and closed-toed shoes).

Snacks and water will be provided to volunteers and, yes, this is on an SAT date and during the SGHS Pancake Breakfast/Rummage sale.

Sign up below with your full name and ID number.

For any questions or concerns, you are free to contact your loving environmental staff :)

We will be meeting up a bit past the parking lot (there should be other people congregating in the general area). It'll be a bit hard to find so make sure you make a turn once you see a sign like this.

The turn left should look something like this:

Hope to see many of you there! ^_^

2013-2014 Q1 -Getting Personal- Concerning Hours and Requirements

For those who weren't here at this week's meeting for my address:

Our hours/meetings requirement per quarter has been 5/5 for members. Meetings are not mandatory for people involved in MoMa. Because of some short recyclings, we've brought down the hours requirement to 4.5. However, there have been some cases in which members do not meet our requirements because of problems unknown to us. I would like to address this.

As you might all have figured out after being an Environmental Club member, we officers are, in fact, human (shocking, I know). We know how it feels to be just short on hours or even a few away because of other obligations and priorities, since everyone is so enveloped with activities at SG. Sometimes we meet these requirements; sometimes we don't.

I've made an executive decision after considering everything that has been brought up to us officers. We will consider your case -if you had any problems reaching our set requirements-, only if you bring it up privately to me (president) on Facebook, the club's email (sghsenvironmental@gmail.com), or my personal email (jestinwith.an.e@gmail.com). My decision may be controversial, and enforcers of rules may question my decision on the grounds that I'm not being entirely fair to everyone in the club, that my decision leads to the dissolution of "rules", that this isn't realistic.

Visiting a father's grave and having family problems are much more important. If you believe you shouldn't be kicked out because of unforeseen circumstances, tell me with a passion, that you aren't just a member in this organization for college, but a member because you love what we do. The experience is way more important than hours.

Still, if you slide by, there will be strings attached, which may include a higher hours requirement next quarter, higher meeting requirement, or delegating specialized work. Also, not everyone will slide by; we have to keep objectivity.

Thank you for reading this post; I hope I conveyed my passionate feeling about this intelligibly.

-Your 2013-2014 President, Jestin Ma
