Residents can take the campus shuttle. Resident Council is in charge of carnival games. Ideas are: basketball toss, sucker pull, cake walk, gourd bowling, ring around the ghost, pin the nose on the witch, musical tombstones. Marci will email Lianne the budget for this month’s activity. Lianne will try to get the UPC Board to turn in the Spookfest fliers early.
Finance— Marci had her meeting with the Publication Council. She informed them of the cost per month for News and Views and told them of changes that we have made. The monthly calendar is now on the back of News and Views. In addition, Classifieds have gone online. Next year when we apply for funding, Resident Council will request funds for driveway banners. Valerie will have Syd track these costs.
Marci finished the budget request and it has been turned in to ASUU. She will let Resident Council know if additional funds have been approved.
Marci finished the November calendar for News and View.
Facilities— Monsters and Muffins went well. There were nineteen people, which is good considering the activity was during the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Semi Annual Conference. The participants had lots of fun.
Garden fliers are in the Resident Assistants boxes to be delivered. Tom got the order for the barricades that need to go by the garden. Resident Council will be using their new barricades for other activities. Valerie will talk to Tom about moving the dumpsters October 23rd so residents can get a head start over the weekend.
