As everyone else has said, communication is a big issue right now. The best update i even got was a facebook message from Nick!! I'm thinking we need a contact list. Anyway, when in class today, there are a couple things I want to get done. There are lots of lists we need to make: memorabilia inventory, scheduling, history lay-out, etc. Hopefully we can get that done during group time. I hate to say it but I would like to go back to the club. A LAY OUT NEEDS TO BE MADE. We need to know what's going where. Also I talked to Paula Broglio. Ralph Friedgen might be out of town that weekend, BUT she said she's going to make 100% sure and email me back. We also would like to advertise at the Comcast Center. One last thing, I would like to know who will be working our booth at Quadmania. I don't want to leave it all up to Katie! I do plan on being there.

But on the bright side, I think everyone is doing SUCH a great job! I'm very excited

More stuff!

Ok, so since I last updated my blog...

I'm in the talks with Paula Broglio who is one of the secretaries for Ralph Friedgen (UMD's football coach).

I have found out only one of the former Miss 4100s. Her name is Stacy Ritter and supposedly is a friend of Stasi K's family!

I am still trying to collect memorabilia from my dad. I will see him the last weekend of spring break and plan on talking to him then!

I have told my sorority about the event as well and they said they'd love to come! yay! We've got one greek org on board! I will make an announcement at my next Multicultural Greek Council meeting and hopefully spread the word to as many greek orgs as I can!

More soon!!!

Have a great break!

Game Plan!

So it feels good to have an outline of everything we're gonna do! So far here is the event planning time line :

March 5-13: - Contacts (athletes, speakers, etc)
- Collect memorabilia

March 23- 30: -Confirm Radio Station
- Look at food and drink options, etc
- Talk about all outside equipment that's needed
- Memorabilia inventory

April 1-11: - Sort history, create timeline, and slide show
- Visit club to lay out structure
- Finalize staffing, placement and scheduling
- T-shirts

April 12-25: - Advertising
- Purchase needed supplies

April 25-May 9: - FINALIZE EVERYTHING
- Have complete list and schedule of everything; appearances, memorabilia, etc.
- Any extra things that pop up

I plan on doing the following:
- Call Ralph Friedgen, see if he'd be willing to make an appearance
- Find out past Miss 4100s
- Find more sports contacts and memorabilia through dad and other connections
- Try to contact Oprah (I know, it's far fetched, but since I will be in Chicago this weekend anyway, and it's where she shoots, the least I can do it try...)


AHHH! I'M SO EXCITED!! :)
