Yeah you did hear right, $50,000 that is a big load of money! So we need to decide how we are going to use all of this money wisely.( talk to Keeret dog, he knows the lowdown)
 * We will have a meeting some time next week to decide what we are going to do, and how we are going to do it.

__Projects__ Now there are a number of projects that we can start to think about. One is a recycling program for plastic bottles and cans. Now we already have the Bins here at the school as well as a company, Statewide i think who will take it away to a recycling plant to be well....recycled. This project is well suited for us as it is a big problem that can be solved very quickly.

__Solar Power System__
Another project is of corse the solar power system that we have to get some more intel about, but we can start discussing about it. Im not 100% sure but i don't think all the money has to be for just solar, we might be able to get a wind turbine and if there is other spare money by the end it might be able to go along to other smaller projects.

__Revegetation__
I was thinking that it would be cool if we found some really degraded wetlands or river systems and do a complete revegetation with plant and animals. I went up to Carns and then to this small inland rural town. They did a really cool mimi park that used to be completely barren and after a couple of years of revegetation you could hardly recognize it form what it had once been.

__Kitchen Garden__
I know for a fact that the agriculture group is doing a kitchen garden so we could probably get involved with that as well.

**Comment:**

There are a couple of projects thats off the top of my head, but please if you have any other projects in mind hit them up on this page and we can talk about it next meeting:)
