Gecko Inc. First Community Basketball!

On Saturday 1st of October we held our first community basketball. We had 10 attending from what 4 people were from outside our school community. All players paid rs50 and many people bought drinks and snacks that were available. What sold the best was water bottles and energy drinks, which was expected. Snacks did not sell as well and this is one area that we need to discuss in our next Gecko Inc. meeting, should or should we not sell fruits and small snacks if they are not selling well? Will we lose or gain money by selling snacks? Is it worth it?
As a leader of this CAS I did most of the organizing before the actual event. I made all orders on drinks through the business office and filled in necessary paper work. I also am now in charge of all money related aspects and as well as all blue gecko cafe items that are being sold.

The first Community Basketball held was a success as we made profit and had good basketball games played. The next time Community Basketball will be held is on saturday the 29th of October. Unfortunately it is this late as SAISA is held next saturday, and the two saturdays after that are during the October break and most of our Gecko Inc. members are not present.
In the next Community Basketball we are hoping to have more people attending, especially from outside of our school. We will work on advertising this event and getting good basketball games played!
