Nick bought some more supplies (mitts, gloves, turtle wax soap) from Ace. We expect we will need about 2 dozen towels. If you can bring old towels for drying, please do. Cate is bringing brownies, goodies, etc. Joy will bring a ladder, sun block, some folding chairs and the signs. Joy would like to have a sign party to make signs advertising the car wash. Bob will bring the coffee. Heidi will bring water bottles. Joy will look for her cash box and maybe bring it also. > Bob is away at a con. Holly Black’s new book is out.
Also, ANY SIGNS, WHICH ANY DEPARTMENT NEEDS CREATED, NEED TO BE GIVEN TO JOY AHEAD OF TIME SO SHE CAN GET THEM DONE BEFORE GOING ON VACATION.

He sent her a prototype of the badge for the single day pass (not quite what we were looking for). Jess will email James a copy of the rules so he too can work on a badge prototype like he wants to.
