Reminder: No Wednesday meeting this week. We hope to see you on Saturday at the Cedar Rapids Downtown Farmer's Market for the Big Drop. 
On Saturday, we'll meet at the corner of 4th Ave SE and 5th St. SE for the Drop. 
The Big Drop is four days away! 
Ping pong balls rain down for education in just four days! 
 
We had a strong weekend for ping pong ball package sales, so let's finish strong and keep it going through Saturday. 
 
If you sold ball packages in-person, please text Pete Eddington (678-704-3391) before Saturday with the names of your buyers and the number of balls they bought. We can take this info on Saturday, but it is best if we can get this reported and recorded before then. 
 
If you want to drop off any cash or checks from in-person ball sales, you can drop it off through Friday at House of Carpets 2712, First Avenue NE. After Friday, bring the money to the Farmer's Market. 
 
We'll need a couple of people there early to setup before the market opens at 7:30 a.m. We'll need the most people to be there from 9 am to 11:30 - that's time for last minute sales, the Drop at 11 and then cleanup before the market closes at noon.
