Pasted below is a thumbnail sketch of where classes stacked up last year compared to this year (although 2008’s numbers, to be fair, are pulled from 11June, and not 1 June), as well as gifts needed to hit participation goals for each class. Take a look, and use it as motivation to send out those e-mails or make those phone calls.
