There will be an agenda, which will be discussed before we leave the restaurant. Also, please remember that this Saturday, the 8th, we will be participating in the Great Strides Walk at Wild Adventures. If you need a ride, Dr Gladwin will be providing transportation. We'll let everyone know where to meet tomorrow via e-mail. Please check your mail and, if possible, let Patricia or Amanda know if you will be needing transportation.

Message-ID: <3214728.1227462807876.JavaMail.amastone@valdosta.edu> Hello everyone! I want to let everyone know that the boxes are in! They are in Dr Parra's office. If you'd like to grab one to decorate over the break, feel free to! Just ask Patricia in MCL for a box, and she'll let you grab one. I'm sure you all noticed that we didn't have a meeting last week; there will also not be one this week, as I doubt anyone will be on campus for the break. We have two weeks to collect toys for the toy drive - if you want to donate a few, feel free to! I will be! Please remember that they must be new toys only, still in original packaging. If you know an office that would be willing to hold a box, please ask them. I have already contacted the English department. Also, feel free to make announcements in your classes on Monday and Tuesday - the Thanksgiving break could be a good time for people to get in the donating spirit! If you have anything to add, please e-mail me at amastone at valdosta.edu, and if it's information other members will find useful, I'll send it out on the mailing list! I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend, and if we don't see you on Monday and Tuesday I hope everyone has a wonderful break! Amanda Stone President, LASA
