    Ok. It's been mentioned here before, but I REALLY think we should set up a fund for people who can't quite afford to go to CTYI.

    AND! For next year I nominate Serena <y'know the one... the American...>. Cause she might not be able to go next year so... y'know... that would really suck. HENCE I think we should fix this. SO... all in favour say aye. Then we'll work out what to donate. Ok? Good.

    Thanks all.

    what about me????? i am poor. i live in an igloo. ( oh, that was bizarre. for a minute the "p" on my keyboard didnt work. i was "oor.") anyways, my brother is going to try to take away my last year at CTYI by taking the money to go for himself!!! how selfish is that??? yeah..... but im sure serena is more important..... how about we split the funding?

    is it not more important to get money for people who haven't been to CTYI rather than people who've been here already?

    YES! BRING US CLAIRE TOO!

    um... yeah newbies and stuff... but y'see they won't know what they're missing and a lot of them wouldn't be that cool probably. Serena's real ctyi man. and claire seems it too.

    SO! I SAY WE SHOULD DO THIS <those that can> AND BRING OUR BELOVED WOMEN TYPES TO US! YES!!!!!

    hehehe...

    I think its a good idea especially if we're lucky enough to have money, and if i do by the time 2003 ctyi comes, im definetily gunna donate, especially to either Clare (Bryant, of course) and Kerry, two of the only gals i know from the USA and that need help gettin back here next year. Plus, it would be really kule to see 'em again.

    Ok. Thought on administration...

    We get all the money together BEFORE we decide who it goes on. Then it's split evenly to all people recommended UNLESS they only need a lesser amount to get in and then we'll split the remainder from their amount amongst the rest further.

    Sound fair?
    We'll work out how many get it after we know how much we have. So far, nominees are: Serena Golden; Clare Bryant; and Kerry somethingorother.

    there was someone else from NYC there session 1?! how the heck did i miss that? :eek:

    the fund idea is a great one tho- people have to be able to come back- especially if it's gonna be their nevermore year!:(
    i do agree with the point that people who have never come don't know what their missing- it's the campsick ctyiers who long for the return of the summer and the promise of ctyi.......:) what a happy thought!
