Hi again!
Just a reminder for the service project this weekend. It's tomorrow
morning, bright and early, Sunday afternoon, and whenever else you
happen to want to come (even if you haven't emailed me, just stop by
lobby 10, and they will have something for you to do). So far, we
have at least 4 for both time, and I'm very excited.
See you there,
Niki
