Just in case you didnt see this in the first post,
PRACTICE WILL RESUME NEXT TUES, 07/10/08. :D

ok now to the updates.

1) Year-end party!
yes, as some of you (or maybe all) might know, there is going to be an year-end party on next fri, 10/10/08, from 1830! :D

this year, western dance have been invited to perform and we have decided to put up the STREETFEST ITEM!

the people who are chosen to do the item: Rachel, Liyana, Vanessa, Enid, Jeslyn, Hui Ting, Alvyn, Sherrilyn, Yvett, Grace and Aditi!
due to the lack of time, we have decided on these people as most of them are the ones that have done the item before. AND it's going to be an intensive week, because the party is on next friday.

Also, on that day itself, WD will be setting up a booth selling things, so we need help! (the more the merrier!)
so please do sms your in charge whether you can help out or not (YES PLEASE DO TELL US IF YOU CANT AS WELL) and what is the time that you can help out till. thanks! :D

2. Open Day
NJC Open Day is here again, happening on the 18th October!
According to popular demand (haha we go by majority), the 2 items that we will be sending is Streetfest HipHop item, and Dancing!
so now, your job after reading this is to choose your preference as of which item you would like to do, and from there, we will be choosing who to do which item! :)
and also, please tell us if you have any duties on that day, because we would need to come out with a DUTY ROSTER for everyone.

On that day itself, we will also require everyone to come down (provided that you dont have other duties such as usher etc), so do check the blog often for any updates on DUTY ROSTER for that day! :D

3. Hoodie/Jacket
For hoodies, now we've decided to open up an option for you all!
would you all like:
a. Keep the old design and only those who havent gotten the hoodie yet need to buy
b. Modify the whole design and
i. all get the new one
ii. only those who havent gotten the hoodie yet need to buy
c. An all new design!

since you are still reading this, it's still not too late to take out your phone and start typing in all your responses to your exco in-charge! SO TAKE YOUR PHONE OUT NOW, and poll. thank you!

yep, a pretty long update.
SO AFTER YOU HAVE READ THIS, just a short summary of what you have to do.
take out your phone and sms your exco in charge the following:
- whether you are free on year end party day (next fri) to help out and if yes, what time you can help out till
- your preference of item as of which item you would like to do on Open Day and if you have other duties on that day.
- your choice for the new (or maybe not so new) WD jacket/hoodie etc.
ALL REPLIES TO BE IN BY SUNDAY, 1800!
all replies after this time will not be entertained, aka, do remind your friends about it. :D

THANKS! :D

with love,
Your ExCO
