This week and last week, we have been having meetings and have been writing our proposal. We divided the proposal into four different parts and then assigned a section to each member (two people for one section.)
The first section that we assigned was about why we wanted to organize a field day. We thought it was important to explain why it is a good idea and have some research to back us up. The section finished with the goals that our program wanted to meet for the children and for the community. Jessica was in charge of explaining that section.
The second part explained why we chose Mauldin school district. Steph explained her research and the reasons why we thought that Mauldin is a good starting point for our activities. She uses statistics and articles to back up her ideas.
The third part introduces the field day idea and the type of activities we thought about, such as games, events, and competitions. We give specific examples of what games could be played or how to change the field day monthly to fit the time of year. Kyle wrote this section of our proposal.
The fourth part was an mock-schedule for planning an actual field day. We thought about meetings, getting people involved, advertisement, and materials and put them in a specific schedule. The schedule is to help Strong Communities get a stronger picture of what we are trying to do and if the program actually becomes reality, the schedule will be a reference document for them. Elyse and Charlie worked together on the schedule.
The other parts that were not assigned were done by whoever had the time or opportunity.
We send our proposal to Mr. Charles from Strong Communities today. We are excited to receive feedback and see what he thinks of our ideas.
