Tonight was a short meeting. We basically just picked up flyers and talked about places to post them (anywhere & everywhere). I attached the flyers to this e-mail so if you run out (or were unable to make it to the meeting) you can print more off! Remember, you can print for free Kresge, Chandlers, and lots of other places☺
Also, try and talk to any classes, other groups, listservs, etc. you think would be interested in our run and ask if you can do a short presentation or add a snippet about the walk into their newsletters.
Finally, make sure you and your friends sign up for the walk!
Happy flyering!

March 16th Meeting
Hey guys,
If you weren’t here for tonight’s meeting here is what happened!
• We are putting some finishing touches on the flyer and t-shirt logo so keep an eye out for that towards the end of the week.
• The website is updated so check it out! https://www.msu.edu/~foso/
• Online registration is open. It is $8 online so do it ahead of time and save some money☺ https://www.signmeup.com/site/reg/register.aspx?fid=D42V6K7
• We are working on a list of places to ask for sponsorship/prize donations. Once the flyer is final we will send out the list and post it on the blog (http://fosoatmsu.blogspot.com) and a letter to give to them.
• Think of some creative ways to market our group to new people! If you know of any classes that fit in with our group or have any professors that would be open to having FOSO members speak about our group for a few minutes send us an e-mail with the information.
• We think we will start advertising via listserv once April rolls around so if you are a member of any let us know so we can give you a little snippet to put into it.
Have a good week!
Elyse & Kara

Meeting Notes from March 2
Hello to all members of our Family [of Strength]-
In case you couldn't come to the meeting last night, here is a break-down of the meeting:
Basically, we talked about some important walk-related things. Get excited for April 18th! Sarah is working on the logo for this year's walk, so we can make t-shirts and flyers soon. We are looking for an African drumming group (or something of the sort) to provide some entertainment, so if you have any suggestions please let me know! We are also contacting the State News and other media outlets, LAAN, and local businesses to get sponsors and publicity. If you are interested in working on getting donations, from area businesses, that would be amazing! I will send along a letter you can use once we have our logo. Online sign-up is not a possibility at the moment but we are exploring a variety of options.
Our next meeting is March 16th at 8pm in C-103 Wells. Please make it if you can, because that will be one month from the walk and we need to get our plans in place and start advertising!
