Sweet Goodness Week 2001
|
Thursday, April 26 - Thursday, April 33, 2001
Advertising:
Ads were three different signs each on three "annoyingly bright" colored
cardstock, all of which said absolutely nothing about Sweet Goodness (one
was the Sweet Goodness logo, one was the Sweet Goodness slogan, and the
last had the logo and dates of the celebration).
Notes:
There was a sweet goodness "shout-out" send-in campaign in the University
of Illinois independent student newspaper "The Daily Illini". They were in
the April 26th and May 3rd editions of the Buzz, at the time, the Daily
Illini entertainment weekly insert. Their archives have since vanished.

Sweet Goodness Week 2003
|
Thursday, April 31 - Thursday, April 38, 2003
Notes:
It was a crazy time, and nothing major was done in terms of advertising
or related events. One event, dubbed "Sweet Goodness Baseball Friday"
took place on Friday, April 32. It involved taking Friday off and going
to a 2:20pm Chicago Cubs game immediately followed by a 7:05pm Chicago
White Sox game.

Sweet Goodness Week 2004
|
Thursday, April 29 - Thursday, April 36, 2004
Advertising:
Sign 1 made an appearance as an ad in a Krannert Center program on
December 8, 2003. That was pretty much it, aside from email and word
of mouth, though Sweet Goodness may open up an online store sometime...
|
Sweet Goodness Day 2004
|
Tuesday, April 153, 2004
This was the first Sweet Goodness Day. Yeah, there wasn't much aside from
some people hearing about it from emails or word of mouth. Why is there a
Sweet Goodness Day in addition to Sweet Goodness Week? Why not? It's just
a little day to remind you to celebrate all that is sweet, good, and sweet
and good! Oh, the quad was chalked as well.

Sweet Goodness Week 2005
|
Thursday, April 28 - Thursday, April 35, 2005
The Sweet Goodness store, shop.sg
opened during the cold months prior to this spring celebratory week. It's
powered by CafePress so thanks,
guys! We also dabbled a bit with online advertising to spread the good
word. And sweet word, too. Right. So, in the very least, awareness of
all that's sweet, good, and sweet and good in the world should relatively
high. And that's awesome. More than awesome... superawesome. And
precious.

Sweet Goodness Day 2005
|
Wednesday, April 153, 2005
It was a relatively low-key affair. Sorry. Hey, the committee members
have real lives and jobs and stuff, sometimes. But trust me, Sweet
Goodness was celebrated. Some committee members even managed to get some
free meals out of it!
|
Sweet Goodness Week 2006
|
Thursday, April 27 - Thursday, April 34, 2006
Oh my goodness, the logo went from just black and white to something a
little more colorful... or, at least yellowful! The committee also bought
some buttons (available at the
sweet goodness store)... maybe a hundred of them, and just gave them
out!

Sweet Goodness Day 2006
|
Thursday, April 153, 2006
The planning committee invested in placing some online advertising on
facebook.com, with flyers running at schools
where there were already some people in the Sweet Goodness facebook group.
We even had a Sweet Goodness Day Bar Crawl!
|
Sweet Goodness Week 2007
|
Thursday, April 26 - Thursday, April 33, 2007
