April 09 Meeting

4/24/2009

The meeting was riddled with heartfelt Terry Scholar Officer 2009-2010 speeches that reminded us of how blessed we really are to be Terry Scholars. John showed off the photo mosaic Terry Gift in all of its glory. Afterwards, most everyone trekked over to the fields behind the REC center for the 2nd Annual Terry Field Day where we paired up and teamed up tossing eggs at each other!

March 09 Meeting

3/27/2009

We dove right into Terry Scholar officer for 2009-2010 nominations! Many nominations were voiced and the nomination period remains open until next Friday (April 3rd) @ 5pm. Send the officers an email with your nomination! Franco will contact you if you are nominated by Thursday.

From the looks of it, in Recyclemania, we had ~15 large bags of recyclables (plastic bottles / cans / mixed paper). I think we definitely recycled the most plastic bottles!!! A big thank you to everyone who recycled and helped transport the bags.

Read the Agenda minutes to explore the many fundraising, socials, & volunteer activities we have planned! Our last meeting is April 24th @ 1pm. We will vote for next year's officers. Right after the meeting, Terry Field Day by the REC...

Remember, the Winedale Picnic, Sunday, April 26th is a MANDATORY, kick-awesome event with all of the Terry Scholar schools and Terry Foundation staff!

February 09 Meeting

2/27/2009

We had a tasty fruity fruity meeting today which will be followed by more insanity tonight at Laser Quest. Speaking of laser tag, we are meeting in the Taub RHE parking lot (if you need a ride/can give a ride) @ 7pm to travel to Laser Quest (Directions: http://tr.im/gEz0). Bring $15 CASH for playing two laser tag games! Laser Quest told us to have just one person collect the money & pay there. Usually it is a good idea to wear dark clothing so that you don't shimmer in the black lights!

We as Terry Scholars will be competing with other groups on campus in RecycleMania. monkey icon A GREAT WAY to show UH we care about the environment in our community! Those of us on campus or consume plastics, aluminum cans, and paper (newspapers, human sit drafts...) on campus let's go crazy go nuts about recycling. Check out the previous emails.

Houston IKE Relief, (first weekend of spring break) Fri-Sun. March 13th-15th. Sign-up online!

T-SHIRTS: The "Mr. Terry is my Homeboy" t-shirts are here on campus. Remember this is a fundraiser $10/shirt for the State Terry Family in Need.

John Sallans still needs your pictures of Terry Scholars &/or Terry events to aid in the compilation of our Terry Scholar Gift. Next meeting, March 27th we will be having an 2009-2010 Officer Nominations.

December General Meeting

1/18/2009

The last meeting of the year has come and gone with many splendid memories. Our meeting began at 6pm a bit later than our usual 1pm meetings. However, this was no normal meeting. It was the night of the Terry RamaChanuKwanzMas Fiesta! Efficiently covering the agenda, we moved on to play games like the classic Heads-up-7-up and the paper scrap intensive Telephone Pictionary waiting for the food to arrive. Splendid Tex-Mex food was catered and our own Terry Scholars displayed their own dessert creations!

Once all in the house had their share, we settled down for our traditional White Elephant Gift Exchange! Large, small, round, and fish-shaped presents abounded in the middle of a huge circle of satisfied, yet eager UH Terry Scholars. Tears of joy and anger sprang up throughout the exchange as scholars chose or stole presents and schemed with others about strategies.

A wonderful blast to start out the Holidays! Have a splendid New Years!
