Shimandle Week 8

The realization that our deadline is quickly approaching finally sunk in! I am not as organized as I wish to be at this moment, but I am in the process of changing that. Last night I sat down with our ACS Staff Partner and went over all the position descriptions with her in order to ensure that each task is addressed and each officer is meeting the necessary requirements. The meeting went well and she gave me several ideas as far as things to include and changes to make.
I also realized that producing 10 or so binders before the deadline is probably not going to happen, so I am making a minor change and am going to create the main binder, which will contain all the same information, just a bit more condensed. This binder will be given to the CAC President and the Relay For Life Chairs.
This project is not going to be finished once I hit the deadline because the organizations main event does not happen until April and position changes will not be made until after that event. In order to obtain feedback, I am going to ask each officer to read over their section of the binder and answer the same questions I asked them before starting this process. I am also going to ask for their opinion as to what the binders will do to help them fulfill their duties as an officer. As each officer goes through their section of the binder, I am going to ask them to place stars or highlight things they have suggestions or comments for. There will then be an appendix for current officer suggestions that will address their changes.
I am currently working on the year-long timeline for the binder as well as collecting all the example pieces, templates and contact information that will be included under each officer's section.
Over Thanksgiving Break, I am going to go shopping for the necessary supplies and I am going to print all the pages.
