NOTICES

 

March 5, 2010

Dear Parents and Members of the Boys’ Brigade,

 
Please remember that there will not be any Boys’ Brigade this week –  Friday, March 5, in order that the Pembroke Rotary can set up for their annual Children's Fair this Saturday. 
 
Please also remember that the March Parade has been moved to March 14 – so that the boys can give out the usual Mothering Sunday posies in church on the actual Mothering Sunday. On this Sunday, it is our turn to do church duties and supply some goodies for coffee hour. Anyone who is able, please bring a plate of cookies, sandwiches or any suitable finger foods. This will be our last parade until October, so please come and invite the special ladies in your life to attend – your mothers, grandmothers, godmothers etc! Full uniform (long sleeve white shirts and long blue pants) must be worn complete with ties (red for Anchors and blue for Juniors and Seniors) – please make sure you have your badges on the shirt pockets! Those boys who have earned badges should wear them on their armbands.
 
The Easter Camp for Burts Island is being planned for those brigade members who are 10 years old and up (younger boys must be accompanied by an adult in order to attend) and who have been conscientious and regular members of our brigade. We are thinking of holding this camp the week after Easter, but would appreciate some feedback as to how many boys would be interested in attending this year's camp.
 
Please check our website for any updates and any new pictures that may have been uploaded. Thanks to Bermuda Shorts.

  Thank you to those who helped and worked so hard at the Valentine’s Fair last weekend.  The weather was definitely not in our favour, but we did mange to make a profit of about $5,175.61.  We were very proud of our boys who pitched in and helped out on various stalls since there was not much car washing going on!  We really appreciate the support we get  –  from the boys, their families & friends as well as our own family and friends, and the St. Paul’s Church family.  Please note that there were some plants left over from the fair which we are selling these from our house for the BB ... if you know anyone looking for plants!

 
  Please remember that the next Youth Service is Sunday, February 28.  The March Parade has been moved to March 21 instead of March 28, so that the boys can give out the usual Mothering Sunday posies.

 
  Please also remember that there will not be any Boys’ Brigade on Friday, March 5, in order that the Pembroke Rotary can set up for their Children's Fair on the Saturday. 

 
  The Easter Camp for Burts Island is being planned for those brigade members who are 10 years old and up (younger boys must be accompanied by an adult in order to attend) and who have been conscientious and regular members of our brigade. 

 
  If you have an email address to receive these notices electronically, please make sure we have your address asap.

We will need donations of time and goods for the various stalls including White Elephant (no clothes please), Books, Crafts, Plants and Bake Stall. Please fill in and return the manpower forms with commitments for your time and donations asap. Offer your time and talents where you will enjoy doing so. If you have any unwanted/surplus items in any of the above categories, please bring them to BB any Friday night.
 
Please promote the fair, tell your family and friends about the fair
and make sure that the posters which the boys will bring home are
displayed in grocery stores, schools, office billboards, etc. We will
be on David Lopes radio show at 7.15 am prior to the fair and closer
to the fair, we will share an electronic flyer which can be sent to
family, friends and colleagues as an email blast.
 
If you have any ideas or suggestions for a more successful fair –
please share them with one of our leaders.
