Hello<b> Tierra Seca Members,</b><div><br></div><div>We had a pretty low turnout at the meeting today (hopefully not because we didn't have any pizza...), which did not allow us to accomplish much in our planning for the RISE Symposium on this upcoming Saturday in the Marley Building lobby like I had hoped. </div>
<div><br></div><div>We need club members to help with setting up, throughout the event, making coffee, and breaking everything down at the end. It would really be great to have as many club members attend to help out as we can. We will expect to be on campus with this event from around 7:30am at the earliest, and getting everything packed up by 3pm-ish. If you are not able to stay for that entire time period, that's completely fine, but if you are able to come for any portion of that time, it would be a big help (especially during the set-up and clean-up times).</div>
<div><br></div><div>We also need help with snacks/drinks. We will be serving mostly breakfast related food and beverages for donations only (though it's fine if we include cookies and brownies), and it would be awesome if people could all contribute different items to the event (muffins, banana bread, pastries, fruit, juice, tea bags, donuts, etc. etc.). We already have serving supplies (plates, napkins, etc.) so don't worry about those kinds of things.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you can't stay at the event, but you'd like to bake something and drop it off, we'd be happy to have you do that as well.</div><div><br></div><div><b><u>Tierra Seca members: PLEASE email me ASAP to let me know if you'll be attending the event</u></b> to help the club raise money so that I can keep track of who to expect and what food items to expect so that we don't have everybody bringing the same thing (also so that I know what we still need to get). It's really important that we have at least 3 or 4 people helping out at any one time during the event, so I'd really like to encourage everybody to come if you can make it.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks for your help and see you soon,</div><div><br></div><div>Kelsey Hawkes</div><div>Tierra Seca President</div><div>Society for Range Management</div><div>University of Arizona</div><div><a href="mailto:khawkes@email.arizona.edu">khawkes@email.arizona.edu</a></div>
