preliminary promotion guidelines
have been posted, so far outlines beginner "promotions" for
wearing keikogi and hakama, bogu (do, tare, kote), and men.
Still need to get another round of ok's from senseis.
8 people signed up: M/M Fukawa, J Kodama, S Yoshimura, Y Kariya,
S Domen, M/M Henderson
only 2 tickets awailable for the 9am flight @$367, other fares
went up to $445. 4 will use this flight from LAX, 4 will leave
7:30am from Ontario @367.
others wanted to go but could not commit to the trip due to cash
flow problems
suggestion to look into fundraising projects
- ideas include car wash, yard sale, selling candy, corporate
program (eg Krispy Kreme)
- suggestion to have a bank account-like program similar to
boy scouts or band groups. Participating students get deposit
points for hours worked at fund raising event or amount sold.
This way students can start saving for future trips and activities,
not just this year's Hawaii trip.
- first event: white elephant sale (new/good items only, not junk).
Submit proposal to Board for next Wed meeting, announce
in Mar Tomodachi (out 3/4 mid-week).
3/10-11 too early, 3/3/17-18 FIK seminar, so request 3/24-25.
Suggestion to do Sat to get Japanese school traffic.
Also need to advertise in Pennysaver. Finalize ideas by Mon.
