Homecoming rulez my life!

Here I sit in Bracken Library after spending close to 7 hours in the last 30 working on solely Homecoming stuff. I'm not complaining though, because the work I'm doing now should go a long way to making Homecoming week the best week ever. Plus, all this work is making me feel quite accomplished.

Thus far I've created an Excel spreadsheet with the address and phone number of over 200 Muncie businesses to contact as well as updated the letters that are being sent to them in late summer.

Now I'm working on the specifics for the inaugural Business Storefront Decorating Contest. It is going to be a competition between Muncie businesses to see which one can have the best decorated storefront as determined by a panel of judges. I'm excited because if the contest is well received, it will result in the town being painted Cardinal red and white and creates another bridge between Muncie and the university.

Overall, Homecoming is shaping up nicely. Everyone is working well together and the meetings are light-hearted and entertaining yet extremely productive. Across every event, chairs are pushing the limits to the extreme to make everything bigger and better than previous years, and that can only result in one thing: epic awesome.

Anywho, this Word document is calling me (yes, it speaks) so I'll going to get crackin' on that.
