A group of us handed in a Utica Square party for the fifth night concerts.
Michelle should have the form. We gave it to her on Sunday.
Janet
Our Annual Christmas Party and auction are quickly approaching. If you have put this creative and organizational task off, please take some time to move it up on your to do list. Kirk and I leave town on Saturday and will be gone all the week before the auction. If I could get this organized before I leave, my committee members would be less stressed about their own to do lists. Use these links for the auction form – in PDF and in Microsoft Word.
Please email to mplacetul(at)sbcglobal.net.
We will auction all parties or gatherings in the live auction and “things” will be silent.
So far we have the following items to auction:
1. Super Bowl Party in February
2. Witching for Unmarked Graves at the Perryman Cemetery followed by beverages & appetizers on El Guapo’s rooftop in April
3. Chili & Blues party
Silent Auction – I didn’t look closely at the items
1. 2 handmade items by Beverly North
2. Something rolled up like a print or poster
Thanks,
Michelle Place, Lynn Russell, Pam Sherman & Nancy Morgan

Please find attached with this message, the proposal for distribution of our funds raised at the Christmas auction for needs within BAUMC and outside BAUMC but some recipients being within the Conference or denomination. From here, our process is two-fold, asking for your review of the proposal and letting us know if you have any further nominations. Then, on Sunday, April 11, we will have a final draft for your revisions and acceptance.
Sharon Earley has been heading up this process to date, assisted by Bill Gertsen, Shari Goodwin, Kevin Meehan, Meredith Davison, and others (whose names escape my memory at this time). We have had nominations and recommendations from others of you as well, and continue to ask for your feedback before April 8th. Contact Sharon (sharon.earley(at)williams.com) or me (richard.wansley(at)okstate.edu) with suggestions and other nominations. My thanks to Sharon for her leadership and others who have contributed to this important activity of our Sunday School Class.
Remember – Sunday School Class this Sunday, Easter, is a Brunch; bring whatever food you wish. And, the Class hour begins at 9:30am. Ed Payton will be leading us with a devotion. See you on Sunday to celebrate the Risen Christ!
