FREE POINTS!

Who doesn't love free points? :D Ok, so Julia thought of this up. We want more people to use our blogspot, so basically, if you sign up for our blog, then you get .5 points. In order to sign up, you have to click on join this site under followers, it's somewhere on the left over there <----

Anyways, then you enter in your info, it would be helpful if you had a gmail since blogspot kinda connects with gmail, but if you don't, there are other options to join too! Also, if you can get others to join, then you will get 1 full point and that person will get .5 points for joining! Be sure to get them to comment on this blog post saying _____ sent me! Easy right? But there's a catch, this only lasts till September 30 which is like 3 more days, so hurry hurry! :D

I felt a need to put my name at the end of the blog post so you can see who's posting! Most likely it'll mostly be just me, but I love to just have a signature at the end (:

Going Live with ANGEL!

Hey everyone! If you were at Monday's meeting, we talked about going live with ANGEL, so I sent out emails to members who already paid with the password to log themselves in, so if you have already paid, please check your emails! If you already have and didn't get an email from me, please tell me! We're still working on setting everything up, I didn't realize we still have a lot of stuff to put up on ANGEL, but we're getting there! Once we have all the members sign up, it should be running more smoothly!

I know this doesn't have much to do with ANGEL, but I have gotten a few questions about the points system and how it works. Ok, so first off I did put the points chart up on ANGEL under content, so whoever is logged into ANGEL in our AGS group, be sure to check that out! It does depend on the person on how many points you need to accomplish. The points are NOT per weekly, it's in totals. Basically, if you have to do let's say 40 hours then you can do them over the course of the next 3 months or so and they are due by the end of the semester. To read the points chart, it depends on how many units you are taking and how many hours you work, if you have a job. Let's say you're taking 12 units, but working 0 hours, that means you have to do 40 hours, which is 40 points total. Don't forget one hour equals one point. I have been updating the points of the people who are in the ANGEL group slowly, so if you see I made a mistake, please tell me! I don't want a riot forming at my door or something if I mess up. I have also posted the community service forms under content, they are for people who decide to do community service outside of AGS, so get those filled out by whoever is in charge of what you're doing (: We will be posting up "assessments" where people can sign up for the times they choose to volunteer in the ANGEL group, so stay turned for that! And I think that's about it! If you have any questions about anything then be sure to email us!

Hope to see you all soon! :D

Santa Clara Art and Wine Festival

Hey everyone! Our AGS president, Julia, received an email from the people over at the Santa Clara Art and Wine Festival! Here is the email:

Hello,

The annual Santa Clara Art and Wine festival will be held on September 17th and 18th at Central Park in Santa Clara. SVACA will once again be joining in the fun by bringing many of our adoptable animals out to meet folks and spread the word about the good work that we do.

There are 4 volunteer spots open for each day, please sign yourself up in Volgistics if you are able to lend a hand that day.

Please contact Mike or Jennifer if there are any questions.

Thanks for all that you do for the animals!

So if you want to volunteer for this, please contact Julia so she can contact Michael by Monday or you can comment on this post and I'll make sure Julia knows that you want to volunteer! (:
