my weekend

as i said in my last blog, thursday we got assigned our permanent teams. friday we had meetings going over what the different roles in the team are. i have three roles- capper, media rep and food prep. CAPper stands for something but i forgot what! pretty much what a capper does is go around to schools or events where we can spread the word about americorps nccc. there are three cappers on each team. so, we could go to a school and give a big presentation to the whole school letting them know about it or we could set up a table at a college and explain to people as they pass by. the media representative is the person who would talk to a reporter or someone from a news station. i would act as the spokesperson for our team. and the food preparation means i will be in charge of getting menus made for the week, putting together a shopping list and then getting the food.
saturday we had team time. so, tim our tl took us to this really great family owned pizza place and we had lunch then went next door and had ice cream! after that we went to the park right down the road and did games and things that of course all had a learning experience. it was a really fun afternoon!
 saturday night i went downtown for a little while with some friends.
today i had a day off so i headed into town to go to the denver art museum and check out the king tut exhibit. it was SO cool! :) i spent more than two hours walking around and checking everything out. i would just love to go back! and even better, to go to egypt! unfortunately i couldn't take pictures inside but here's a picture of my stuff! in the book it shows all the things inside the exhibit.
overall i had a wonderful weekend! :) hope everyone else did too!
xoxo,
