Stories
Interact in Action 
Students in our Interact club were excited for the chance to help out and work with some of their elementary schools these past months in assisting with their Fun Fairs.  They love opportunities to get out and work with others in our community and are looking forward to continuing that tradition as some of them move on to the high school. In preparing for this transition, the students are developing plans for our 5th grade transition event where they will lead groups in team building activities, break out sessions and presentations.  Students will also get the opportunity to celebrate all that we’ve been able to give back this year in planning for projects next school year.
Big Brother Big Sisters 
If you are looking for a way to give back to the community Big Brothers and Big Sisters along with District 200 have a great opportunity for you.  Big Brothers and Big Sisters is coming to District 200 starting with a lunch time mentoring program at Westwood Elementary School.  Big Brothers and Big Sisters is looking for people to serve in this program.  If you are interested or know someone who is interested please contact Karen Atkinson at karen.atkinson@bbbsmchenry.org or email Mike Moan at mmoan@wcusd200.org.  This is a great opportunity to give back to our community and our schools.  
Host Family
Host Family Needed!
 
As he has done for the past weeks, Chris reminded the Club on Friday that we need the third and final host family for Thomas. It is down to the wire. If you or someone you know is able to step up please contact Chris ASAP.
Beach Party 2019
Beach Party! Beach Party! Beach Party!
 
It is only 31 days away!  
 
We learned Friday that only 8 tickets had been sold. That's about 2% of our goal! Get your tickets sold and the info in to Laurie!
 
And for the hundreds of people that will come because we sold those tickets we need to have great ways for them to give their money:
 
  • Have you thought of a live auction item?
    • Major League sports ticket donations
    • Weekend away in a major US city - donate air miles, hotel gift card, limo, restaurant gift cards
    • Do you know of someone who has timeshare to share?  A summer/winter home to share?  Ask for it.
    • Weekend to NAPA Valley.  Sonoma County.  San Francisco.  There is wine AND beer out there.
    • NY NY weekend.
    • Dinner for 6 in your home.  Dinner for 6 at a great local restaurant.
    • Dinner Cruise on Lake Michigan.
    • Think of something that is not readily available, unique and an experience to remember.
  • How many basket items have you solicited?  We are going to bring back the silent auction for the top 10 baskets items.  Get yours on that list!
  • Remember it takes all of us to have a successful event.  ALL. OF. US.  Every year someone is unable to attend, that is life and it is OK.  Yet we still have the prep work to do:  Live auction items, silent auction items, invite guests, etc.  Try and keep Friday of the event weekend open for decorating duty.
 
The work of our club - the grants to the community and to international projects, our backpack program at Woodstock High School, Operation Warmth, RYLA, Peace Essays - just to list a few things is funded through this event. The better we do the more we can do.
