[nfbwatlk] Fall Convention

[Prows, Bennett (HHS/OCR)]

Hey,

>From my standpoint, we don't *need* to have the auction on Friday night.
In fact, we might be tricked rather than treated.  Might talk with Mike
about moving the auction back to Saturday night this year, so that if
new and additional folks come to Everett for the banquet they can help
fund raise for us.  Therefore, we could have a Halloween celebration of
some kind on the *real* night for that stuff.  A spirited event.

Kris,

I was totally thinking along those same lines, kinda scary! Anyway, I
think
the Student Division could team up with a school or community group and
host
an actual carnival with a cake walk, spook alley, fishing pond, etc.
Wouldn't that be fun for all of us? Just like we were kids again.
However,
it would need to be on Satuday night because of the auction, but I don't
see
a problem with that day.
