Forecast Update
- First Snow-We reopened the payment window for tonight's meeting
only!!!!
- AMS Contest-There's nothing really new to report, it just keeps going and
going and going and.....
- National-We are forecasting for Minneapolis, MN at the moment. Scores for
New Orleans, LA will be posted tomorrow afternoon. Look for an email from
Janet Schenck. Also, we set out clocks back on October 31st at 2 am, so this
means that forecasts will now be due at 6 pm instead of 7 pm. Janet will email
you all to remind you of this change.
Fundraiser
Janet has called Hy-Vee and Sams Club about discounting the prices on bulk hot
chocolate. Hy-Vee is the most helpful with this. They are going to give us
half off the price of their hot chocolate mix. Kari has the water heaters so
we're pretty good on equipment. If you have anything helpful or any ideas,
email Janet Schenck ().
Social
- Intramurals-Talk to Elise if you have any questions, she will send an email later..
- AMS will sponsor a tailgate at the Nebraska game (Saturday, November 6th).
We're probably not going to have an other tailgates until this game.
- If you have any social ideas, email Elise Johnson ().

talking about time, drivers, etc. If you're interested, email Elise
Johnson.
