II. Our trip to Steve Cook’s farm was recapped. If you have any pictures from the event, please send them to Stacy (sgreen@udel.edu) or Michelle (mlapera@udel.edu) so they can use them in the scrapbook!

III. Camden Aquarium Trip:
We are going to the Camden Aquarium this Saturday, November 17th! We will be meeting in Lot 19 at 10am to carpool. If you have a car, please bring it! It will be $13 per person, but make sure you bring some extra money to buy lunch there. Also, parking is about $7 per car, but if you keep your receipt and bring it back to club, we will reimburse you your money. If you haven’t signed up yet, please let me know asap and I will add you to the list. If you are signed up and can’t make it, please email me as well.

IV. Longwood Gardens Trip:
Sign ups were passed around for our annual trip to Longwood Gardens on the last day of classes instead of a meeting. It is on Wednesday, December 5th. We will be meeting in Lot 19 at 5:30pm to carpool there. Admission will be free! If you would like to sign up, please email me (kkoenig@udel.edu) with your name, cell phone number, and if you can drive/how many.
*If you can’t make it to Longwood Gardens with us and still want to go, the Horticulture Club is going as well on November 29th. You will have to pay admission, but it will be cheaper than a regular ticket, so less than $15. Email udehortclub@gmail.com if you would like to sign up to go with them instead.*

V. Amazon Gift Wrap:
We signed up for the fundraiser with Amazon wrapping gifts on Thursday, December 6th from 2-6pm. It is on Reading Day, so there are no classes that day. If you’d like to sign up, email me (kkoenig@udel.edu) and I will talk to Dawn about fitting you in.

VI. Holiday Dinner at Dr. Griffiths’ house:
We also signed up to go to Dr. Griffiths’ annual holiday dinner at her house! It will be held sometime in the afternoon (TBA) on Sunday, December 9th. We will also be having a gift exchange for those who want to participate. If you would like to participate, a good gift to buy, wrap, and bring should be about $5. If you want to come, please email me (kkoenig@udel.edu) with your name, cell phone number, and if you can drive/how many.

VIII. NESA (Regionals)
We passed around the sign up sheet for Regionals tonight, even though it is a bit early. It’s being held at Del Val (close!) on the weekend of February 22-24th.
