Re: Fwd from Linda Orsted: August 9th picnic

Thanks so much for your help in making the indoor picnic a success last Wednesday. For a bunch of older folk we have lots of energy and enthusiasm as well as a sense of mission.

I forgot to include in my earlier message that helpers should be at the church about 4:30 unless you are planning to help clean up. In that case, just come at 5:30 for the meal and stay until the end!

Thanks so much, everyone. 

We'll watch the weather and make the indoors or outdoors call at 4:30.

Dear Choir:

It's time to plan the picnic we will be hosting on Wednesday, August 9th. I was involved in the first picnic and the menu worked well, so I thought we would repeat it. We over-estimated the amount of sloppy joe filling we needed, so there is quite a bit in the freezer that we can use. We could probably use another small batch to add to it. Here is what I plan on serving:

Sloppy joes on buns

Raw veggies

Pickles

Watermelon

Brownies/cookies

We could probably use 2 people per item. I will purchase the buns. I would also like 5 or 6 volunteers to help prep, serve, and clean up. We need to be at the church at 4:30 and should be done by 6:30 or 6:45.

Please let me know if you can help in any way. (It's fun!)

Thanks.

Thanks! -- and reminder about tonight

Dear Choir:

Many thanks to the sopranos and altos for leading the way with the great
group of singers who came together last Sunday morning. We truly
achieved a great-sounding -- and intergenerational -- choir! I thought
both pieces sounded great -- and fit in well with the rest of the service.

And here's a reminder to all: this is the day we host the neighborhood
picnic. It looks like it might be an indoor picnic, but that's okay --
a picnic is a picnic. As Linda Orsted indicated in her Tuesday email,
those helping with setup should be at the church at 4:30, but even if
you don't have early (4:30) responsibilities or are not among those
providing food, please come at 5:30 to eat with everyone and help host
our friends and neighbors. And anyone who can stay to help the clean-up
crew is welcome.

Thanks to all for all you do.

Sincerely,
Allan

Calling Sopranos and Altos

Dear Choir -- and especially sopranos and altos:

This Sunday is the day for the sopranos and altos -- volunteers and
regular members -- to provide special music at the morning worship
service. I hope you will be able to come sing and lead the way for any
others who may come and join us. The plan is to meet at 8:30 a.m. and
practice two good anthems, which will be easily learned and rewarding to
sing. The music will be in the choir loft and no robes are required.

Hope to see you then. Thanks.

Allan

P.S. And just a reminder: this coming Wednesday, August 9th, is the
date for the choir to host the weekly Wednesday-evening neighborhood
picnic. There have been consistently good turn-outs for these picnics
all summer. Linda Orsted is coordinating everything, and I'm sure will
be sending out more details early next week.
