Reminders and Updates from March 11
Hi NHS Members,
All hours are up to date. Please check the spreadsheet on the right sidebar to check your current hours. If your name in the hours spreadsheet is highlighted in red, you are presently considered a member not in good standing. Our sponsors have your names and may contact you about this in the near future. If your name is highlighted in green, you have fulfilled our requirement of 20 service hours for the school year. While it is not necessary for you to complete any more service hours for this school year, we encourage you to continue volunteering your time in the spirit of the National Honor Society.
A couple notes and reminders:
-Mystery Hours 2: Electric Boogalo! TWO NHS members submitted notes without names this past meeting. If you "tutored Madison Dahle in Spanish at the library for two hours" or "teach religious ed at [your] church for service hours," please let me know via email so I can give you credit for the hours you put in.
-Clarification on In School vs Out of School hours requirements: As an NHS member, you are required to complete 20 total hours of service. A minimum of ten of those hours must be in school hours. A maximum of ten of those hours may be out of school hours. If you are still unsure of the requirements, feel free to send me an email or refer to the NHS rules, available on the blog.
-Senior Members: Second semester hours are due at the May 11 meeting. You must have completed 20 service hours, with a minimum of 10 in-school hours, by that date in order to graduate as a member of NHS. Take advantage of the many hours opportunities available with the Viking 5K. And we can always use more tutors!
As always, I'm willing to address whatever questions and concerns you may have in regard to your hours,

Service Opp! Mini golfing with the Elderly
Hi NHS
New service opp!
Saturday, March 20, 2010, from 1:30 to a little after 4:00 PM
St. Elizabeth Rehabilitation and Nursing Center
3320 Benson Avenue
Baltimore, MD 21227
Basically, the elderly residents of the center will have a miniature golfing day. You as volunteers will be their everything from their caddies to the golf-hole monitors to "huggers". Essentially it seems like a low-stress, fun way to spend time with the elderly and earn some hours! Please let me know if you are interested soon, because the RSVP date for volunteers is by March 15.
Also, our next meeting is Tuesday, March 9th after school. Be there with your January and February hours!

HUGE service opp- Viking 5K
Hi NHS
Every April/May for nearly 20 years the Viking Backers hosts an annual Viking 5K run on our Hebron campus. I am on the planning committee once again and there are a TON of service opportunities and assignments, so please read and sign up!
Flier Handouts: needed: two volunteers per event/shift to hand out fliers at home games, the spring musical, etc. I will attach an excel file of flier handout opportunities as soon as I can, please sign up because there are lots of them!!!! If you are really anxious to sign up before I have a chance to type up the dates, check out http://mhhsptsa.com, under February's Viking Voice for the spring athletic schedule.
Packet Pickup- this is when you will man a registration table and give people their race materials (number, tee-shirt, etc) in a pre-made packet a few days before the race. needed:
2 volunteers for April 30th at Road Runner's (a running store near Trader Joe's) from 4-7 PM
2 volunteers PER SHIFT for May 1 in the Hebron lobby. Shifts are 9AM-12, 12-2PM, 2-4ishPM. Feel free to sign up for more than one shift!
2 volunteers for May 2 in the Hebron lobby from 7:30-9 AM (this is race day)
Race Day: May 2, 8:15/30-11:30AM. Needed: about 30-40 volunteers for the race-day registration table, general set-up and clean-up, COURSE MARSHALLING, the awards ceremony, traffic control, etc.
Due on race day: May 2, 8:15 AM (or better, the night before at a TBD parent house) baked goods to sell/give away on race day. Lots of you did this last year. I think we made each batch of baked good equal to 0.5-1 hours, or something like that.
**Specifically on race day** needed: NHS member who is experienced in photography. Please bring own camera (Digital SLR-type, not one of those little digital point-and-shoot) to take pictures of the Fun Run. These will be turned in to the Viking 5K committee to post on-line.
Alrighty, so LOTS of places to sign up. Get those hours in, especially seniors who are low on hours and need them to graduate with the NHS stoll. As always, any questions please email me!
