Topics discussed:
Sports Carnival fund-raising
1. Duty Rooster. To be done and compiled by the fund-raising team by monday 21st May. Contact Meiying to choose your individual duties.
2. Posters/Banners Publicity for the store on sports carnival (collaboration with programmes) to drive sales. Due on tuesday (in other words, an end-product must be presented to the teachers on tuesday the 22nd) The posters will be left in the staff room.
Three issues to be addressed.
i) price
ii) selling drinks
iii) to raise awareness about the sales of drinks for a good cause
-Walking posters will be designed (2x). Money should not be spent on resources if possible (use of recycled cardboards? and et cetera)
3. Buying of drinks/cups/ice
-Storage (ice box? styrofoam?) and other big containers to house drinks, pails to fill water
-Scoop? Laddle? Though a scoop will be preferred, anything that serves a similar purpose will do fine. This has to be provided by people in the team, please do check your homes for such containers.
-Trays for "transportation" of drinks during the sales
-Cups --> 600 cups, $5 for 100 cups (the question of where to get the cups? when? who?)
-Drinks
i) Sport drinks (isotonic ones like 100plus) + cold gassy drinks. [Choices available: H2O *24*, Greentea *12*, Coke*24*)
A total of 60 bottles of 1.5l will be bought with an estimated of each bottle only providing 5 cups of drinks to be sold.
ii) Cordial drinks. Flavours like lime, and better ones preferred as compared to the more classic flavors such as rose syrup.
4. Request for RECEIPTS ALL THE TIME for reimbursement.
Other considerations Target: To be able to finally raise $10 000 to $12 000
As for the sports carnival : As much as we can! Try to push for sales if possible.
Cold drinks under the hot sun, after sweating, shouting, it all out during the carnival AND for a good cause... Why not?

2nd meeting
YO people. It's Zong Yao from Programmes here giving u a summary on what we did today.
Today's meeting was mainly focussed on Fundraising. I shall list the ideas proposed.
Those who did not attend the meeting today PLEASE TAG THE BOARD TO GIVE UR VIEWS.
1) Grubday - this is about costume dressing where students and teachers have to pay to dress casually/formally etc. For example, those who wanna wear formal have to pay a higher price. Suggestions from the floor : Making it a class event. Best-Dressed Male and Female?
2) Movie Screening - ideas root from letting TJcians watch movies in cinemas or having super super huge projectors installed in the field etc. Suggestions/Comments : *We cannot sell the tickets cos of copyrights infringements. *As said from Miss Koh's experience, it is tough to get those cinemas to give us discounted price *Selling beverages will definitely work out cos demand is inelastic. Haha. Meaning people will definitely buy. *Making it a night event? Then sell mats etc.
3)Setting a New Record: Making the '30' logo with candy flosses Suggestions/Comments : May need lotsa machines. Hence costly.
4) Y.E.L.L merchandise sales:Sale of notebooks or stationary. Comments/Suggestions: How bout a badge? Selling notebooks at a cheaper price?
5)Collage : Use students photos to make a large collage. Comments/Suggestions:Because it is too large, it may be expensive Printing the puzzle?
6) Mystery Auction : Students bid for tutors' belongings without knowing what the item is. Comments: Dont give too much restrictions.Give some clues/hints maybe.
7)Massive 5cents/10cents collection : each person to contribute a few of the above coins. Comments/Suggestions : As banks require us to pay to convert a certain number of coins to cash, it is not feasible. Thus, why not change it with minimarts etc?
8)Sports Carnival Makeover stall : Offering tattoo services , hair dye etc.
9)Long Term/Short Term Snack Stall : Inviting food stalls over. E.g. Ice cream. Comments/Suggestions: Permission to be sought from College to ensure that what the stores pay us will contribute to our profit and not be channelled to the school's funds etc. Using Donations boxes?
Miscellaneous
-Homecoming dinner
- to ask VIP guests to donate generously.
- Auction? -Sell soft toys? Handicrafts?
- Selling not just T-shirts alone but a package of T-shirts,files and notebooks?
-Selling bottled coke during Guitar Club's concert.
