Club Meeting: 1/19/12

Here is an outline of today's meeting based off the presentation!

AMERICAN RED CROSS CLUB (1/19/12)
Club meetings are every other Thursday in Room 24 during lunch.

Announcements~

-We have moved from our former Facebook group to a Facebook page! You can "like" us for quick and easy updates and announcements for the club. See the top right-hand corner of the website.

-Our club has an official club phone number you can call (voicemail only), so if you just need to leave us a message with an inquiry about the club, feel free to call and leave your name and number so we can get back to you! Call (858) 848-7733 with your phone, or use the built-in feature in the bottom right hand corner of our website.

-We have a Red Cross Club TV page! Check out the sidebar to find it; we stream from certain events live so you can get in on the fun even if you aren't there personally. (:

-Make sure that if you haven't already, fill out the TPHS ARC membership application. You are not considered an official active member of the club if we do not have your submitted form on file. <click here to fill it out.> Your volunteer hours are posted online on the extended website (see "More"), and so is the Club Policy stating your requirements. *A few of the people previously on our active members list have been moved to the category of non-active member due to not adhering to our club policy.
