Ghoulish Face Painting: Next on the Hill
OUR FIRST CAMPUS EVENT: MAKE-A-WISH NIGHT ON HAUNTED HILL
Seton Hill's Make-A-Wish Club has invited the CRAFT club to participate in the Night on Haunted Hill IV on Friday and Saturday, October 28 & 29 from 6:30 - 10:00 p.m. The clubs involved run booths with different games or activities. The Make-A-Wish club sells tickets for 25 cents each, our activities cost anywhere from 1 - 4 tickets each, and the proceeds are split between the two organizations. (For each ticket, we get 10 cents and the Make-A-Wish club gets 15). The trick is that our club must provide the materials, and the activities are aimed at children from kindergarten through 6th grade.
So... apparently this is a hot event and all the cool booths are snagged up faster than you can say, "Rockstar!" leaving all the stragglers to do the boring activities. So, after consulting with whatever CRAFT members I could snag before 6 o'clock, I took the initiative and signed us up for the event. We lucked out: the CRAFT club will be providing all of the lovely face-painting for the event as well as selling pretty friendship bracelets for all the little kiddies.
I figure face painting will be a lot of fun and, better yet, cheap cuz all we'll need is some tempra paint (I think!) and to whip up a bunch of friendship bracelets at our next meeting. Vanessa says she has some embroidery floss, and both she and Bethany are experienced face painters. I have practically a lifetime supply of hemp and beads and will raid my mother's closet this weekend. etc.
If you are interested in participating, even if you can only be there one night or for an hour or so each night, whatever, please reply so we can make up some kind of schedule. We had about 20 people at our meeting so I'm sure we'll have plenty of people able to join us. If you have any ideas, suggestions, experience with face paint or friendship bracelets, etc... please get in touch.
