Student Nurses' Association would like to invite you to our CPK Fundraiser!

When: Thursday August 13th 2009
Time: Beginning at 10am and lasting all day
Where: California Pizza Kitchen in Stockton (located across the street from the college)
*Please bring the attached flyer and present it to your server when ordering and the NSNA will receive 20% of your bill!

California Pizza Kitchen has graciously opened their restaurant to us 1 hour before they open to the public. This will give us time to order our food, catch up with each other/get to know new students, exchange books, buy uniform patches or learn some important information from more seasoned students. At this fundraiser the SNA will be selling uniform patches (3 patches for $15), SNA hooded sweatshirts $35, zipped sweatshirts $40 and fleece jackets $45. In addition, the SNA has been fortunate to have “Scrubs” (a uniform store located in Stockton) donate several items that we will be raffling off as door prizes at 11:00am for those student that are present at that time. We hope to see most of you there because events such as these is a great way to network with students in other semesters but also with some of your fellow classmates. Most returning students will tell you...”You need to have some friends in this program that will help you out when you need it the most!”

We look forward to see you all there!
Thank you!

Angela Aistrup - Vice-President (Fall 2009)
