  • Cami’s grandmother has an amazing frosting recipe, which really helped us with the party.

• Run elections: Ethan
  • Now we feast!

• Lorica deadline and assignments: Sophie
  • We need people to write an article for State Convention, press release (Sophie R), Easter party (Victoria), Nationals (Natalie).
  • Magis said that she can write about Classic’s Week
• Work on stuffing Easter eggs
  • Since we are having an Easter party at the shelter, we need to stuff eggs for the children!
• Anything at state that we want for Ludi?
  • Having board games and carnival games were great to occupy people!
  • Having courts and equipment available for pick up games.
  • Some of the workshops were great, especially Jon Runden’s.
• Send all pictures from convention to ahna.kim@menloschool.org
  • If you took pictures at convention, please send them to Ahna because she needs them for her article.
• Update on writing to the prisoners: Magis
  • To be cordial, we would love to send the prisoners thank-you notes and ask them what’s new.
• Elections: We have 3 on the state board. How do we handle officers for next year?
  • If you are on the state board, then you can automatically be consul. However, we would have three consuls; if that is the case, then we could have trade offs and the people who want to keep their current position can.
  • What officers do we need?
    • We need sports commissioners, but we were also thinking of creating a new position for spirit.
    • For spirit, though, we could just have someone who is good at it designated to it.
  • When do we hold elections?-next week?
    • We need to hold elections soon because seniors have their last day of classes next week.
• Banquet: Do we want it one week earlier?
  • Lunch or dinner?
    • Lunch works best.
  • Run by seniors
    • Naomi, Natalie, Anna, Jack, and Sophie S can help plan.
• Plan for zoo this summer: Oakland?
  • We could go to Oakland zoo instead of the San Francisco zoo just to change it up.
  • To afford this, we would need to host another waffle sale.
    • We could do April 30th for the waffle sale.
• Officer updates
• Nationals: who is going?
  • Natalie, Maddie, Sonia, and Ava are going to Nationals.
