We had our first meeting this Monday! I think it went pretty well. We introduced the Beautiful Lengths program to everyone who attended and explained the event and how they could help.
But unfortunately, we're no closer to solving the problem with CAC. And I barely know what the problem is, let alone understand it, but I'll let them handle it all since we're in no hurry because...

GOOD NEWS! FINALLY!
Last week, I attended the new student organization workshop and met Dr. Terri Hurdle, the program coordinator for student organizations. She reassured us about all of our worries with the registration process and promised to work with us to get what we needed. Huge sigh of relief after that meeting.
And even more recently, Circle K International has officially decided to sponsor us so we can reserve the event space!!!! Yay! I'm going to wait until we meet with the President of their group next week until we actually reserve the space, but it's so nice to just know someone say "yes."

Leadership focus
As this project will (hopefully) become an honors experience for me, I need to start focusing on developing good leadership technique. I chose to focus on a coaching leadership style because I think that it will be the best route for the development of the group and the future of this campaign at UC. Denise Zimmerman (vice-president) and I split the whole group (there's 20 people!) into three categories: marketing, fundraising, and graphic design. Because I'm officially the President, I will have my say in all three groups, but focus on directly leading the marketing team. Sara Gaugler, a key member of our team, will take charge of fundraising since she has experience in that area.
