There's a maximum number of soup kitchens you can attend?

That's tentative, but for the soup kitchens I handle, the answer is a general yes. (This is for Saturdays, though, not Sundays)

There's a maximum on the number of soup kitchens you get credit for; this way members aren't trying to complete their requirements with 10 soup kitchens in the first term, etc.

I and the other soup kitchen chairpeople are trying to get soup kitchens for Sundays and as many holidays as we can. Don't worry, there'll be events that aren't on saturdays, well, there should be lol.

SKs are supposed to be during the weekdays, during breaks and days we don't have school. You should know that, Annie.

Unfortunately, SKs aren't really open on Sundays - churches run them, and churches deal with their own service on Sundays.

In the spring we'll have more events on Sunday, like Junior League, the Senior Citizen's Prom, and You Gotta Have Park.

a minimum of two soup kitchens are require.
So I think even if you have 100pts you still need the soup Kitchens

If you're not available on sundays, of course we'll make an exception or compromise. We're working on them, but like ellen mentioned, we don't control the scheduling.

it's hard to say how many events are on sunday exactly, but there's the senior citizen's prom, junior league, and other park cleanups, etc.

We're doing a lot of these five-pointer things for a reason. They'll add up, trust me. So far if you've done every 5 point thing you should have over 20 points, which is more than one event.

Yeah, actually, it is.

You didn't do any of our 5 point deals? PM me with your name and grade and I could find out what you have. Did you come to Operation Santa Claus? That gave you five points.

If you find any events that would be suitable for BETA members, let me know. When we do the event you'll have first dibs.
