Today was another wonderful success!
This afternoon we were given the wonderful opportunity to meet face-to-face with some representatives of the Camp Pendleton Paintball Park to go over details about our event that will take place March 8th. We are hoping to be able to have food trucks with delicious and wonderful meals available that day.
Following the morning meeting with our panel, our event team (Emily and Briton) left for San Diego to clear up some event details, and the promotions team (Alaina and Stephanie) stayed behind at school to perfect the mockups of flyers for the paintball event.
While on the road, Emily continued the editing of our latest interview with Lloyd Gautreaux, grandfather of our very own Alaina, while in the car, and should be finished and able upload it soon. On the home front, Stephanie and Alaina finished 3 mockups for promotional flyers, and await the return of Emily and Briton to help determine the fate of the art.
As always, the day didn't come without its challenges as the event team got lost on the road and Alaina encountered many difficulties with her technology. Hopefully, the event team will return to us before too long, Alaina will be able to overcome her loathing of her computer, and Emily can return soon to upload the latest video.
It looks like the paintball event is getting closer to becoming a reality. I'm so glad you got to meet face-to-face with the Camp Pendleton folks. I think the food truck meet up at the even is also a great idea. What would your arrangement be for fund raising with them? Or, is it simply to add another layer to the event?
ReplyDeleteWe spoke about meeting with the Wounded Warrior organization to show them your documentaries. Is there any news on this front yet? Finally, I love the idea of selling your gummy soldiers during school events. What are some of your ideas. Be sure to run them by the appropriate people (maybe Poff?). It is exciting to be so close to your goal. Keep up the good work and the very positive attitude. It's been a lot of fun for us to work with you.
