Volunteer(s) to be the "go-to" person(s) if our guests need anything

    Registration/student nametags: do we have supplies in the library, or do we need to purchase some?

    The librarians have not found them yet, and Jimmy will let us know by tomorrow whether they found them or not

    Volunteer to contact Culligan Water: Matt Lauer

    Their manager is out of town until Friday and since this is not done by a purchase order we need to use the Humanities Credit card. Last year we paid $20 for 2 cases and they donated 8 (total of 10). Matt L will talk to their manager on Monday when the manager is back in town and then will email Dr S

    Reception: woodwinds provide cookies Friday night, brass and percussion bring them on Saturday. Do we need more supplies for punch?

    Email a reminder to the ensemble. We have 2 bottles of Sprite and 2 bottles of Hawaiian punch - do we know how much we use? Jimmy will email Jess and ask what she thinks

    Have we heard much section leader input yet about having sectionals during Fest?

    Yes: Elizabeth, Anne, Tricia, Michelle, Danna, Nate, Jess, Jason, Molly

    No: Josephine, James

    Other: We attach the fest schedule to the newsletter and post it on the website.

    We do not need people to help set up on Friday because we can just leave it up on Thursday afternoon

    Do we still have donation inserts for the programs - stuff the programs at tabling

Other

Silent auction - has a committee been formed? What has been done so far?

    Not yet. How many donated items do we want to auction off? It was decided that we would try to get as many as possible. If we have way too many then we will have another auction

"Prism" concert at the Fitzgerald Theatre in Minneapolis and preceding mini tour

Still gathering ideas


Volunteer to talk with the bookstore about our clothing items: Rose

Rose needs to talk to Dr S first


    Any ideas for an end-of-the-year party? Do we want to do a Secret Santa exchange?

    We can't have it on the last class day because that is the last rehearsal before Maslanka. There also is a possibility for a council party.

    Dollar Question:

    This letter of the alphabet designates the two connections between our guest conductor and our guest soloist. What is the letter and what are the connections?
