*I had mentioned before that you will be able to miss 5 meetings, but it has been changed to you can only miss 3 un-excused meetings this month of October since two out of the eleven meetings will be excused (10/04 afterschool and 10/05 afterschool), so that makes it nine meetings you are asked to please attend.
*Please fill out an absence form and put it in the absent box , or e-mail me at greeneclub_cphs@yahoo.com, we understand that you may be participating in various activites (work, sports,buses, live in L.A) or may not be able to attend all the meetings, yet you desire to remain in the club for that reason the absences will be excused ONLY if you let one of us know or fill out the absence sheet, but if you miss a meeting without notifying us it will be an unexcused absence and three this month (October) will result in the termination of your membership in the club.

If you do not have an e-mail, I strongly suggest you get one, because it will facilate communication between us and it will be useful for school purposes also.
NEW Points System
I wanted to give you all a heads up on the new point system we will be having. The point system consists of points given to members for attending meetings.
1 point will be given for all lunch meetings attended in the month of October.
