• Images Modeling and Talent Agency Annual Fashion Show we will need 6 to 7 volunteers. We had a few girls sign up at meeting, but there are a few more spots available. This will be a great hands on experience to help choose models and work behind the scenes. Email Meredith Cinnamon at mlcinn3@uky.edu if you are further interested.

• The Atlanta Trip is coming very soon and there are only 20 spots available. At meeting we passed around sign-ups. Points will be needed to be able to attend this trip. We will travel down Thursday, April 8th and come back Saturday, April 10th. Friday we will be spending the day at the Buyers Mart and that evening we will attend a fashion show followed by dinner provided by the MAT club. Saturday will be an optional visit to the Princess Diana exhibit. The price is not final yet, it depends on points and who all can attend. This is going to be an awesome experience and a great way to get to know other members in the club, be sure to sign up on the 3rd floor in EH this week! 

• This year MAT club will be hosting a Keeneland fashion show! At meeting we had sign ups for models, setup crew, and clean-up crew. Paige sent out another email with more information concerning the fashion show. The event will be March 29th at 7:30 in the Worsham Theatre. We will be partnering with the non-profit organization Search.Love.Rescue. The show will cost $5 and $3 will go to the non-profit and $2 to the MAT club. We need all the help we can get to make MAT club well known on campus!
