Hey folks,
This here blog is being set up to offer a Web space accessible by all SP volunteers working on organizational (i.e. non-editorial) issues, from vendor coordination to fundraising to community outreach.
Use of this blog will help reduce email clutter, allow for postings on everything from band lineups for benefit concerts to advertising protocols to office volunteer hours and substitute call lists.
I'll be sending to all SP coordinators/managers on the business and community outreach side to become authors, which will allow them to initiate posts (such as this one) to which anyone can add comments.
Let's all try to get in the habit of using this blog and checking it regularly so we can better coordinate our efforts between weekly meetings and reduce email volume and confusion.
Best of luck!

Here are the minutes from the sunday (3/18) business meeting regarding the Benefit:
PROMOTION: Everyone signed up for a location to flyer at their own descretion. (see below) People are to get flyers by either printing them off (see attatchments) or picking them up at my house THIS tuesday at 7pm. (I live at OFEK SHALOM co-op, 122 N. Bassett) In addition to flyering, there will also be a CHALKING party after this coming Sunday business meeting. Jon Volunteered to do a press release w/ Molly's help.
Here's what everyone signed up for:
SHELTERS:
-Debbie
-Dustin
STATE ST:
-Becky
-Molly
-Courtney
-Dustin
CLASSROOMS:
-Colin
-Molly
RAFFLE/PRIZES: In addition to advertizing, Molly, Jon, Rocky, and Colin have wonderfully (is this a word?:) agreed to make some SP T-shirts to sell at the event. In addition to this, we were thinking of raffling off none other than our fellow Street Pulse Crew! Speed dating lessons from will, Gutter cleaning from Dusty, custom zines from ms. King.... If anyone else has any other services they'd like to offer, or any other ideas for prizes let me know!
FINAL NOTES: Something else i forgot to mention is that we will need two or three volunteers to manage our info table at the beneft. Also,If you are recieving this, but didn't sign up for anything, let me know if and how you'd like to be involved. It would be great if everyone could at least hand out a few flyers, scribble on a few chalk boards, or talk to a few friends. (Also, Jeff, do u think u could make the poster into quarter sheets and send it back to me? Thanks! :)
Thank you to everybody for their enthusiasm and support! I'm really excited!
Remember: wed, March 28th. loading at 8, doors at 9, show at ten. King Club

(p.s. If you are under 21, i suggest u get there at 8 so we can sneak you in. I don't think there would be a problem if you said you were volunteering, but it would suck if there was)
Thanks to everyone for volunteering
Here is a list of the Places/Businesses we established as vendor recruitment sites:
Porchlight
Port St Vincent De Paul
Hospitality House
Yaharrah House
Mission
Full-Circle Ministry
Safe Haven
Savory Sundays
Here is the list of places that were good for vending sites
Escape Coffee
Atwood Community Center
Notes: This is a really good start. we need people to adopt each of these places and work on developing them.
All that you need to do is check their webpage, call them, or visit them and tell them who we are (bring a paper) and what we would like to do with them (participate in any events they host, or set up a table once or twice a month for vendor recruitment.)
let me know
Thanks to all who do the street pulse. Debbie
Nate get back to me O.k.
