We are back in business and busier than ever! There are some great changes coming for us this year! We are having our annual local pageant and this year we are going even bigger! Local winners will then be able to compete in our first ever national pageant! Right now we are in the process of pulling all the details together and we will keep you posted! We are accepting applications for 2015 pageants now! Also we are now accepting donations for our Christmas sparkle bags and are looking for volunteers for the assembly of the items. If you know anyone in need of a sparkle bag, are looking to volunteer some time to your local community, or would just like to make a donation to the cause please contact us!

Just a little reminder that all cheesecake sales sheets need to be turned in to Kim Martin or Mandy Fulcher by May 21st. Kim would like everyone to try to sell at least 10 cheesecakes! Thanks everyone for all of your efforts!

Also, if you have not contacted Mandy Fulcher with your plans for the HOL Festival tables, we really need you to do so soon. If we don't hear from anyone, soon we will start making phone calls to sign people up for tables.

We will be having a clean up for the new Hands of Love house on May 23rd from 6:30-8pm. At that time we will pass out the new sheets for the Bug Spray Fundraiser. All Queens that show up to help with the clean up will have an appearance counted! Hope to see you all there!

  • Take pictures of appearances and fundraisers and email them to Jennifer Meekins.
  • We will be doing a candy bar fundraiser- more details will be given at a future meeting.
  • Kim would like everyone to click "LIKE" on the Hands of Love Facebook page. 
Mandy, Nichole and Crystal are handling tables and coming up with ideas for booths for the Hands of Love Festival to be held July 7, 2012 from 2pm-9pm.

Our next meeting is on March 29th at 6:30pm at the Family Life Center to assemble Easter baskets and food boxes. Any donations can be dropped off at the Hatteras Pharmacy. Items still needed are:
  • 60 Macaroni and Cheese
  • 60 Mashed Potatoes

It is not too late to contact Kim and let her know anyone else that needs to be put on the Easter list. It was awesome seeing everyone and really nice to have such a good turnout at the meeting.

People in Attendance: Kim Martin, Jennifer Meekins, Deb Roy, Heather and Anthony Bunting, and Zayannah Roy.

  • Tonight's meeting was held at the Family Life Center.
  • Next Meeting will be at Angelo's. March 20th, 7pm. Attendance is required! Bring all donations and lists to meeting! It is the last meeting before the assembling of the food boxes and Easter baskets, which will be held on March 29th and 30th.
  • We discussed ways to advertise and get the Hands of Love name and what we are about better known to the community. Ideas that we had were radio, pamphlets, flyers, and of course, word of mouth.
  • Debbie is getting boxes and labels donated for the Easter food boxes.
  • We need the following items donated for the Easter food boxes:
  • 240 cans of corn
  • 240 cans of green beans
  • 60 macaroni and cheese
  • 60 mashed potatoes
  • 60 gravy
  • 60 rolls
  • 60 desserts
  • 60 meats (preferably hams)
  • A lot of candy for the Easter Baskets and the Hands of Love festival
  • Kim entered us into a contest. If we win we will receive $5,000 in product.
  • Jennifer Meekins and Debbie Roy will be making flyers and pamphlets to be presented for approval from Kim Martin.
  • Jennifer Meekins, Heather and Anthony Bunting are currently giving the Hands of Love website a facelift 
  • We are looking for vendors for the Hands of Love festival that will be held on July 7th. We will be charging vendors $25.00 for a table. All queens are required to have their own booth. Please try to have an idea for what you will be doing at your booth for the next meeting. This way we can avoid people doing the same things.
  • Queens are also required to do one fundraiser of their choice on their own (ex. bake sale, yard sale, etc.) Please take pictures of any fundraisers and appearances and send them to Jennifer Meekins at jmeekins2008@gmail.com, this way she can add them to the website.
  • It's time to start getting sponsor ads together for next year's calendar. Anyone that sells $500 or more in ads will have their entry fee paid for and their Super Shoot session paid for. The person selling the most ads will be getting the new title Ad Queen. Prices for ads are $25 for business card size, $50 for half a page, and $100 for a full page. We prefer people buying ads to give them to us in PDF form. They can email this to Hands of Love and also pay through PayPal if they like.
  • We still need personal hyqiene products, stuffed animals, toys, school supplies, etc.... any items food and they can be dropped off to the Hatteras Beach Pharmacy.
  • So far fundraisers that will be held at the pageant include a raffle for a shopping cart full of items, fur coat raffle, $50 prize and $100 prize. We will be selling tickets before and during the pageant. The drawing for all prizes will be held at the pageant. You do not have to be present to win. We are thinking about having a concession stand at this year's pageant.
