Community Service ideas

Today [4/5/07] we decided on the following project thing, (to serve as our community service requirements as well as fundraising).

-Students would vote in the mornings and at lunch for the teacher they would like to see have water pured on, maybe a couple of water balloons involved, mass water gun shoot out (though some sort of pseudonym is definitely needed); votes would be a small fee (around 50 cents?) -The three teachers with the most votes would then be subject to the 'torture' as described above -at the end of year-book signing day -Half of all money raised would go to a charity (soon to be decided upon)

Older Ideas: For lack of time, the Community Service Committee would like to submit the following ideas for the eighth grade Beta Club Project: A). **//Spirit Week-//** For Spirit Week, students would pay a small fee in order to wear things that wouldn't ordinarily be allowed to be worn on regular school days such as the ever popular hats, flip-flops, etc. We feel as if this could be a minor community/fundraising project Beta Club could sponsor which will include a much bigger project. B). **//Fun Day-//** This is what the Committee thinks can serve as Beta Club's BIG project. This can be held on a Friday afterschool, provided each attendant has a ride home. A variety of activities will be available. With admission and concessions to bring in money. (would could like donate a portion of profits, or give aways or something? to justify as community service) C). **//A Community Service Project-Field Trip Collaboration-//** Mr. Thompson approached us with the idea of having a field trip that would also count as a community service project while serving as a Beta Club field trip. This option is actually the most practical option, it would eliminate two of the three "goals" eighth grade has, not to mention, it would be easily justifiable. D). //**Car Wash-**// The Community Service Committee also thought of having the ever-popular car wash to be offered most likely to the teachers probably in collaboration with the "Fun Day" idea. //8th GRADE BETA CLUB REALLY NEEDS SOME MORE SUGGESTIONS FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECTS, SO IF YOU HAVE ANY AWESOME(or even kind of lame) IDEAS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO MESSAGE/TALK TO EITHER MR. THOMPSON, HANNAH, OR CARMINA//
