Update for Progress

Full progress report to come on Thursday...

We have finished the design of our flyer. Here is how it will look, pending the approval of Professor H.: (I cannot figure out how to import the flyer from Microsoft Word into my blog so I am pasting what is on the flyer, so far; imagine it on a word document, with more creative fonts like you will see...)

I sent this to your email, Professor H.

Sharon and I also decided on several other things in our meeting this past week, which I will bullet right now but go into more detail with in my progress report for Thursday (as things are still "bubbling")

- We have come up with the design for our t-shirt and gotten prices on their production from Tiger Towne Graphics; we have some decisions to make about price and colore, but we're thinking doing a blue t-shirt with white writing, with a graphic drawing of a child looking up at a bookshelf. This is still in the works.

-The flyer needs a photo, Professor H.'s approval, and the university's approval and then we will start distributing it around campus and the community.

- Our event name will be, "Once Upon A Time Book Drive" and our 'slogan' will be, "Happily ever after begins with a book...". The event name will be used on the flyers and the t-shirts and the slogan will be used only on the back of the t-shirts. We will incorporate both in our facebook group.

- Our "event date" where we will present our project to the class and share pizza with everyone will be on November 27 from 3:30 to 4:45 in the 1941 Studio in Daniel. We have to double check that it's still available and then that is a go.

- We want to announce to our class on Thursday that if they are interested in purchasing a t-shirt they can, to help us fund the t-shirt idea. It's not mandatory, though.

This is our update for today, but i'll have much more information available in the progress report on Thursday. :)
