2018 Services and Activities Budget Cycle
This year in order to have your budget accepted a representative from each club will need to attend a budget school. Ideally this will be the individual(s) who will be presenting your budget.
Budget requests are due February 8th 4:00pm and budget hearings will be February 21st and 22nd.
If you have any questions please contact myself me at aaron.tuttle@ghc.edu or the Executive Officer of Budget and Finance, Taylor Miller at asbudget@my.ghc.edu.
Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service
What is the MLK Day of Service?
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: 'What are you doing for others?'"
Each year, Americans across the country answer that question by coming together on the King Holiday to serve their neighbors and communities. The MLK Day of Service is a part of United We Serve, the President's national call to service initiative. It calls for Americans from all walks of life to work together to provide solutions to our most pressing national problems. It's awesome!
The Day of Service is January 15th from 8:00am-12:30pm. Check in starts at 8:00am. We will have a kick off and welcome until 8:30am.
All volunteers will then drive to their volunteer sites and be on site from 9:00am-12:00pm. Site sign up will occur at check in the morning of.
*Must Provide your own transportation to sites*
Possible site locations:
- Aberdeen Parks and Rec
- Invasive Species at Lake Swano
- Sorting food at Coastal Harvest
If you are under the age of 18, your parent must sign a waiver prior to the event!
**Please come prepared to be outside and in clothes that can get dirty. Some sites do have limitations of number of volunteers.

Purchases and Catering
Now that fall is in full swing I wanted to remind everyone that before purchases are made the Office of Student Life requires supporting documentation in the form of minutes and provided 2 weeks before items are needed. This includes completing A-19s or signing off on any expenses.
Catering:
As you complete the Facilities Request form to reserve you need to include if you will have any catering. Even if you don't know who will be catering your event please make note that you will have food on the hospitality form. Campus Operations and Event services will check to see that your accounts have funding.
*Charlie's Cafe NO LONGER PROVIDES CATERING ON WEEKENDS*
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to stop by Student Life and talk to Aaron.
