Community Fund Run
New year, new route
We had 75 runners last year but I don’t think a majority ate food, I am willing to change the order if others think we should
It would only allow me to put 2 coffee totes in the cart but I think we’d be better off with 3-4 which would put the total between $125-150

Had idea for doing tailgates on the green for basketball games in the spring
Another health initiative idea. I know some CrossFit gyms will do fun group workouts. Each RSO could get people to sign up to go to the workout class and the RSO gets points for bringing the most people. Would love to do a healthy event each month for RSO’s to compete and get points on top of bringing healthy lunches.
TBA YLS does a team/group fitness event in the spring at F45 - could be a great opportunity to collab because firms bring teams so that would appeal to RSO’s/ law students - AL
Did we get money back from B&B?
Not yet. I’ll keep y’all updated

SBA Website calender being updated to be more long-range; many events are solidified far in advance (the SBA events, the TBA YLS events, other major events like graduation etc); as long-range as possible - useful to RSO’s to look at to book events with minimal conflicts (MB mentioned he books speakers far out based on their availability, etc and that it’d be nice to see other RSOs events far out too)
Love the idea of defaulting to written out itineraries and shift slots for all our events
