No encounters, no communicatio
n line established,
no liaison for a long time, little group interest (no

October 31st build day and future build days (next semester)
Problems We’ve Run Into
General lack of enthusiasmFew actual service events in the fall
Habitat build dates are in late fall and into next year
Science Olympiad group volunteer sign-ups are early next year
What We Plan to DoJump into both service projects in the
upcoming semesterMake service projects fun by partnering with
other university groupsTake only small, interested groups of people
as opposed to entire AED group Smaller groups are more enthusiastic and are
easier to work with
