Adopt a Family 2013-2014


Another year - another season will soon be upon us.
 John and I will be meeting with our
elementary school contacts shortly.

They will provide us with a list of families
who require assistance.
We will meet with these families
in order to determine their needs, the number and
ages of the children and any special requirements.

In order to finance this worthy project
we will be having our regular soup
nights starting with the second Tuesday of November
and continuing in
December, January, February and March.
Two kinds of soup, bread, crackers
and dessert will be provided.
The cost is $5.00 per person payable at the
door.
BYOB.

We are seeking volunteers to make soup and desserts.
Please contact Mary at Lot 5 or email her at mbmre_17@yahoo.com with your questions and offers.

The monies generated from this event with help us
 in purchasing perishable food to be delivered
 at Christmas time along with donations of
non-perishable food, clothes
 and other necessities for these families.

We will also need helpers to shop for each child
 and to assist in delivering
these items on the Saturday before Christmas.

Soup night does not provide sufficient funds
 to cover the costs to provide
everything we need to purchase.
So, like last year we will be holding an auction.
 

This auction will be held on
Sunday March 2, 2014 at 2:30pm in the pavilion.

We are looking for items "from the heart".
 Items such as dinners, car wash,
pet wash, homemade pies, pickles, knitted items,
in other words something personal.

So mark your calendars:

Soup night:
  November 12, 2013 at 5:30pm at Flip Flopz

January 14, 2014 at 5:30pm at Flip Flopz
