Hello Fellow Pre-PAers, I hope you all had a great third week of school and survived those midterms! For those of you who still have midterms this upcoming week, my condolences and good luck. Thank you to all who came out to our meeting last week with Joanne, it was awesome to see members participating and to be able to get to know some of you through your interview answers. I will be posting the minutes from the meeting later today on all of our online sources - make sure to check them out as there was a lot of good interview information and tips from Joanne! This week, HPA will be hosting a meeting regarding gaining hands-on clinical experience for Pre-PA. Clinical experience is one of the most difficult and time consuming requirements for PA School, as I'm sure a lot of you already know, so take advantage of the opportunity to learn more about what options are out there and how to best prepare yourselves. The meeting will be Wednesday Oct. 21st at 6:10pm in Geidt 1003. For those of you who were unable to make our Lazi Cow Fundraiser on the 8th (and everyone else who just loves pizza and wants to support our club) we are having a fundraiser at BLAZE Pizza Oct. 22nd from 6:00pm-9:00pm. In order for our club to get a percentage of the proceeds, you MUST present our fundraising flyer (handed out last meeting and attached here) to the cashier when you pay. Thank you ahead of time and we will see you there! REMINDERS: - Everyone who has not paid their membership fees yet but still plans on becoming an official member, please make sure to mark your T-shirt size on the Facebook poll so we can order enough T-shirts for everybody in the right size. IF (and only if) you do not have a Facebook, you may email our club email with your T-shirt size. If you have already turned in an application and paid your fee please ignore this. - Wednesday October 21st is the last day to turn in your Mentorship Application if you want to be a part of this year's Mentorship Program!!! In order to be considered for the program, you must be an official member (application and fees turned in) by October 21st. As always, please let us know of any events we didn't include and email us with any questions! Your Officers (Kellie, Micah, Sabrina, Lisa, An, Jacinda) UPCOMING EVENTS: I. PRE-PA CLUB EVENTS

First, a big thank you to all who attended our first meeting and fundraiser this past week! We had an awesome turnout for the meeting and the fundraiser was a success! This and all club money will go towards T-shirts for club members, "thank you" cards and gift certificates for speakers, club supplies, road trips to graduate schools, and providing more opportunities to our members. This week, our meeting will be Wednesday October 14 at 8:10pm in room 1309 Surge III. Make sure you come and learn about graduate school interview tips from guest speaker Joanne Snapp! If you did not pay your membership fee at our first meeting and want to become an official member, please bring your $15 to this meeting (we accept cash and checks). There have been a few people asking if they could pay a lower membership fee if they do not get a T-shirt; unfortunately, this isn't something that can be done. The fee is strictly for becoming an official member of the club and one of the perks of being a member is also getting a free T-shirt. It would not be fair if everybody wasn't required to pay the same amount to be a member. If you are an official member and want to be a part of our Mentorship Program with the PA students at UC Davis School of Medicine, please turn in your Mentorship Application to this email by October 21st (found on our website and Facebook page) as we will be sending all applications to the PA student representative on that date so she can match our members with their students. Remember that you have to be an official member (membership application turned in and dues paid) in order to take advantage of this opportunity. We hope to see you again this Wednesday! As always, please let us know of any upcoming events that we may have missed or any opportunities you would like to see happen for the club.

I hope your first full week of classes went well and you are still able to ignore those midterms looming ahead. This is an exciting week because it is our first club meeting of the year!! Make sure to come this Wednesday at 7:10 pm in Chemistry 176 to meet our officers, get an overview of our website, hear our plans for this upcoming school year, get to know your fellow members, and enjoy some FREE TASTY SNACKS. Speaking of food, we are also having our first fundraiser this Thursday at Lazi Cow from 3:00pm-1:00 am. Make sure to go get some delicious boba or desserts and either mention that you are from the Pre-PA club or show them our fundraising flyer and Lazi Cow will give our club 15% of the proceeds earned! We are looking forward to seeing lots of new and returning members this week, and to getting this year started! Make sure you have emailed us your membership application (found on Facebook and our website) and that you turn in your $15 membership fee at our first meeting to be an official member for the school year.
