year, and would like us to display some of the literature at our table

at Ag Day.

Because of our difficulty helping out Steve Cook this year (we got

lost) we're going to have to reschedule for next semester.

Guest Speaker

Next week, we will have a guest speaker from Perdue. Please come and

bring questions. He will be speaking about work in animal industry.

Dairy Tour

Our tour of the dairy for a disabled woman will take place on Weds,

April 19 at 4pm. A sign up sheet was sent around to give the tour.

Guest Speaker

That same day, at our meeting, Dr. Culp, and Army Corps. vet will be

speaking to the club.

Plant Sale

Plant sale order forms will be distributed as soon as we have all the

plant names. This will be our major fund raiser for the spring, so

everyone sell. Especially to faculty members! Another idea is to place

adds in the UD classifieds. More about this will be discussed next

week.Car WashThe car wash fundraiser for the spring has been scrapped

in favor of concentrating our efforts on the plant sale to raise

money.

Banquet

The ANSC club banquet will be held on May 10 at Timothy's. Please send

any award nominations to Amanda, Jess, or Carolyn. **Don't send your

nomination to the person you're nominating

**AG DAY

for our education display. We will also have a "make your own animal

feed" activity for kids. The animals we will be concentrating on are

sheep (ruminants) and chickens (non-rum). In addition, we will have

facepainting. The shirts will most likely cost $7-$9. The exact cost

will be known by next meeting.

High School Committee

If you are on the committee for the high school quiz bowl or are

interested in helping out, we will be meeting at 5, before the next

business meeting in 111 Mem.

Delaware Humane Society

There was not enough info for the tentative service activity at the

Delaware Humane Society, so the trip has been put on hold.
