Meleanie Hain fund raiser & other action items committee: Enroll here/brainstorm here

[Pa. Patriot]

There is a lot of things that will need done and that folks have expressed a desire to do. Some right away and some later down the road. Additionally, there will be discussion required to work out many of the ideas posed for fund raising, memorials, etc.

I propose we use this thread as a central point to focus our efforts so as to better keep things coordinated by having the info in one place.

For starters I will post a list of tasks we need help on. Both people to volunteer to get the task done and ideas on how to best get it done. This list will grow and be edited as needed.

For prioritizing I will separate the items into two categories based on urgency/timeline and two colors to distinguish where help is still needed.

RED = Items needing info/volunteers
BLUE = Items that should be good to go in regards to manpower, etc. Further discussion, info and volunteers more than welcomed though.

Volunteers will be added between ( ) on list items.

5) Flowers. (exceltoexcel)I would like folks to consider donations to the childrens fund, but I also feel it appropriate to arrange for flowers on behalf of us as a group. We'll need someone to look into that (pricing, etc) and post up some options.
