A copy of my email sent out today!
Please check your email for the attachments!
Hello members! Tomorrow is our first major deadline. All of you who have presubmissions need to email me your files no later than 2:00 p.m. tomorrow. (Friday, February 5). Please pay attention to whether or not your event has a documentation form. I'm attaching a Word file with all of the documentation forms for all the events needing one. You should scroll through to see if your event has one, copy the text, and paste into a new file. Then fill it out and email it back to me. Don't worry about my signature - no worries. Points will be deducted if YOU do not do this.
Also - interview skill people - there is an application that needs to be filled out on the computer as well. I'm attaching that to this email too. Please fill it out (on the computer) and email it back to me with your resumes and cover letters. I will then forward your email to the appropriate person at states.
I will be staying after school today - please do not all rush down here last minute to take care of everything. I will be leaving at 2:30 on Friday.
On another note - I'm also attaching the corrected letter for your parents. The original letter mentioned that we were going to Dallas, but I just forgot to change last year's info to this year's! Whoops! The date of states is March 6, 7 and 8. My original communication to you, back in September, had the wrong date, but was corrected immediately and discussed at all our meetings, was on all of our agendas, etc.
Your money for states is due by Tuesday. Please be mindful of how much you owe. It's either $175 or $215. If you didn't do community service, it's $215. That's the next attachment - I have a list of students who have not satisfied the community service requirement. So if there's a question, consult that file.
As I mentioned I'll be staying after school today. If you don't need me, then just email me your files!
Oh - and don't forget the contests! If you've written a social media essay, designed a pin or a cover, you can win scholarship money for nationals! That's all due tomorrow as well. Click this link for more info on those.

January 20 Meeting
At our meeting on January 20 we talked about the following topics. This blog post is in case people need clarification or if you were one of the 13 who missed the meeting.
We talked about the success of our last social gathering. It was a lot of fun. Allison is going to put together a bowling trip for February vacation.
We handed out certificates to the new members who were unable to make it to the initiation evening. All members were given their membership cards and pins.
The Disney Give a Day, Get a Day Habitat for Humanity project that 8 people have signed up to do with Mrs. Sylvia should be a blast. Please note that this event may not happen in time to get your free Disney ticket. If you would like to go to the website and register for a different event which could happen sooner, please feel free to do so.
Regarding States - The special event will be a hypnotist. We talked about how the money for states is due by February 5. The cost is $175. Checks can be made payable to BP-BPA. Dress code - professional! Your $175 for states pays for your food, registration to the conference and hotel. But please know that Saturday is the one day that we do not provide lunch. We will meet at the school early Saturday morning, drive to the hotel (we will already be in our professional attire) and some will start competition immediately. Pack a lunch, bring snacks. Dinner this evening may be late too - so just be prepared. Do not order room service and think it's covered by BPA. Any meals that you get on your own are paid for on your own. I talked about Torch Awards. I've talked a lot about them - it's up to you know - we're well into out bpa season! I handed out a state merit scholar fact sheet. They are the answers for one of the open exams that you can take at states.
The next meeting is February 25. Judged events to me by February 5. States March 6, 7 and 8. Nationals May 4 - 9.
