GOOD EVENING INTERACT.

Why, it’s been a while, hasn’t it?

I know I haven’t updated this blog in a while, and I apologize. I’ve completely ignored it. I’M SORRY! FORGIVE ME. BUT I promise, this time I’ll be more strict on this thing. I’m just so jumble-minded and busy with a zillion things in my head, but that is no excuse. SO INTERACT, this is my vow to thee to update.

So there are no events this week. :[

I know your heart is in despair over the fact that you cannot perform your kind act of community service this week.

But don't you fear! April 4, 2009 will bring a new event. Just you wait and see.

And just a heads up. APRIL WILL BE FILLED AND FILLED WITH EVENTS. SO drink your community service juice and getcho game on.

AND BE PREPARED FOR THE MOST EXCITING, MOST THRILLING, MOST SICK EVENT IN THE NATION. THAT'S RIGHT. COOLER THAN OBAMA. Okay maybe not that cool, BUT IT'S PRETTY DARN EPIC.  DRUM ROLL PLEASE.

IT IS....

SPRING SEND-OFF!

WHOOOOT.

ON APRIl 19, 2009, OUR INTERACT DISTRICT will be celebrating the end of a great, revolutionary Interact year at... THE ONE AND ONLY GREAT AMERICA. Honor yourself for a year of dedication to the community by having a lunch with your fellow Interactors. The lunch and ceremony will take place at California's Great America's Pavillion. Pre-sale for admission will be $35 and ends April 5, 2009. After that prices will increase to $45. SO BUY IT SOON. Before the great deal ends! This ticket will pay for your buffet, all you can eat, lunch, as well as unlimited rides from 10 AM until 7 PM on that day. SO BUY IT! It's the deal of the year, and the event of your life.

MAN OH MAN! Monday was probably one of the funnest fundraisers I have been to.
It began with “Bouncing for bucks” at 5:00pm and lasted until 10:30. Then there was the “INTERMINGLE” dance at the Santa Clara Teen Center from. Not to mention the Sweet Tomatoes and Yogurt Works fundraisers in between.

BOUNCING FOR BUCKS:
This was our very first event at Sky high, and I’m quite thrilled that it went well.
I got there at 4 and stayed till about 8:30, and I’d say an estimated 150-ish people came to bounce around.
Be sure to look out for this event next year.
:]

INTERMINGLE:
WAS AMAZINGLY FUN.
We made an estimated $1700 with an attendance of over 400 people.
Although it was really crowed, hot, and sweaty, it was still pretty fun.
We even managed to impress key clubbers.
Missed out last night?
HAVE NO FEAR!
There will be an area 6 and 8 dance coming in January.
It will be BIGGER, COOLER, and more AWESOME.
Cause our area rep doesn’t want to lose to Area 11.

Your Co-President,
Carolyn Dao.
