CAB sets Homecoming deadlines, incentives for participation

The CAB meeting Tuesday night focused on club Homecoming activities.
Each club is required to decorate a bed sheet, which can now be picked up in the Senate/CAB office. They are due at noon Sept. 30.
There is $50 in each club account for decorating supplies, but each club must contact Alyssa Bauer at [email protected] to make a Wal-Mart run. She is available at 10 a.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Clubs may nominate one candidate for Homecoming king and queen. Candidates must be a junior or senior and a member of the club. Nominations are due by 4 p.m. Sept. 26.
Nominations for the CAB Homecoming representative are now open and will close next Tuesday.
All clubs are encouraged to enter a float in the Homecoming parade. The parade theme is still Mardi Gras, although the football game theme was changed to whiteout at last week’s meeting.
CAB Chair Molly O’Connell has a list of contacts that may loan a pickup or trailer for clubs to use in the parade.
CAB will have a drawing for a $300 and $200 prize. Clubs that participate in multiple Homecoming activities will get more entries in the drawing.
