Hey everyone, here are the minutes for the Animal Science club held on

February 7, 2007.

Treasurer's Report

$239.33

National's Recap

A group of our members went to Florida over winter break for the

National Block and Bridle convention. They listened to guest speakers

and toured local agriculture establishments, including a horse farm.

AgrAbility Speaker

We are hoping to get a speaker from AgrAbility for Weds, Feb 28. This

would be the meeting after Regionals, so there would not be a lot to

discuss. We will present the check from our auction at Ag Carnival to

her.

Other Speaker Ideas

There is a new dairy professor at the ag school, so maybe we can ask

her to come and speak about her previous research and what she plans

to do here.

There is also the possibility to get a wildlife rehabilitator as a

speaker, as well as some UPenn vet students who are alumni of UD.

Carwash

We are hoping to have a car wash on a Saturday in Mid-March. We can

either sell something while we wash cars, or just have a donation jar.

We would like some ideas of what we can sell, so please send any ideas

that you have to Kaitlyn at kaitlyn@udel.edu.

Ag Day Prep

Ag Day is our big activity in the spring. It is held every year on the

last Saturday of April. While that may seem like a long time from now,

it comes up a lot quicker then you would think. One thing that always

bogs us down is t-shirt ideas, so your job is to start thinking of

t-shirt ideas for the club. They usually consist of a little drawing

on the back with a witty saying. Also, we always do a little bit of an

education portion, and this year we were thinking of keeping it to one

species, probably sheep. So if people could think of what posters we

could make about sheep, that would be great.

Regionals

Regionals will be held Feb 23 - Feb 25th at Penn State. If you are
