Thanks for a great day!

Hey everyone!

I want to start off by thanking you all for a GREAT DAY at the Pancake breakfast! I was so thankful for each one of you and how you served! I am please to announce that between the money raised from the pancake breakfast as well as a donation raised by one of our students from an outside group, we are able to contribute $200 on each of your behalf from the pancake breakfast alone (that's $300 total from the 2 dinners!)


In hindsight, there are a number of things that we will plan to do differently to make better use of your time and effort. For instance, next time we will plan to work in shifts (i.e. 15 people sign up for 2nd service, 15 for 3rd, etc.) I really appreciate you all hanging in there through some times when you may not have had a ton to do!


Again, thank you for serving - it was a great success!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION!


Don't forget that there is an ALL TEAM meeting this Saturday, June 28th! I announced this to you via the parent's letter back in FEBRUARY so I expect that you have made plans to attend this day! Instead of planning an all day event (like the letter said), we are going to abbreviate the meeting to be only 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM! During this time we will be doing some very important things that will have significant impact on the trip (as well as how you prepare for it in packing, planning, etc)

Bring money for pizza - we will together first! PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO BRING MONEY!!!


PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU PLAN TO BE AVAILABLE FOR THIS DAY. IT IS VITAL THAT WE HAVE THE ENTIRE TEAM TOGETHER! I WILL SUPPLY PENS AND NOTEBOOKS FOR YOU TO WRITE DOWN IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT YOU WILL NEED TO NOTE DURING THE DAY.

WE WILL TALK ABOUT YOUR BALANCE AND PAYMENTS ON SATURDAY AS WELL - MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE UP TO DATE AND BRING AS MUCH INFO AS YOU HAVE WITH YOU WHEN YOU COME ON SATURDAY!


FUTURE DATES:


Just in case you don't have the remaining dates handy, here are the other 2 meetings that were on the original parent's letter: (make sure you make plans and bring money for pizza!!!!)


July 10th 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM - All team to assemble VBS supplies.

July 17th 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM - All team to assemble VBS supplies.
