At the official time, please send one person into my room - quietly - to gather the materials needed.  Be sure to count the money at the end of each lunch session, so we know what our profit was for each period of each day. 

Check out the National Wildlife Federation animal adoption page and start thinking about which animals we can adopt with our money raised.  (I like the river otter, moose, sea turtle, horned lizard, rattlesnake, and orca)

***************************************
Ecology Club meetings for the next few months:

Jan. 5
Jan. 19
Feb. 2
Feb. 9 - special meeting until 5pm to organize Sweet Treats
Feb. 16
Mar. 2

(Watt Watchers meetings are every other week)

At the Jan. 5 meeting, we got even closer to getting our T-shirt design done and ready to go!  We are now working on both the shirt for members only, as well as the shirt to sell as a fundraiser ("Got Ice?").  The member shirts will have all the members' names on the back.  Be sure Mrs. Bergman has your name on the list that will be printed on the back!!!  

At the Jan. 19 meeting, we will:
   1. be sure all members' names will be listed on the member shirts
   2. talk about the dance we are co-sponsoring (with Student Council &  
       CVHH) on Feb. 12.  We will sign up for various tasks, including a big 
       poster making day with the other 2 clubs on Jan. 28.
   3. plan the Valentine's Card fundraiser.  The "Sweet Treats" cards will need
       to be cut & we need to sign up for selling the cards at lunch.
  
--> with the money raised from the dance and the Valentine's fundraiser, we will soon need to plan how to spend it!  What a good problem to have! 



We had a fun time in the Canyon on Tues. Nov. 24, and brought back to the room purple American beautyberries, red yaupon berries, an earth star fungus, and 2 milkweedvine seed pods.  We'll be adding to our natural history collection with more Canyon trips too!

Here's a picture from our trip:
