Next MOSB Meeting is on November 10th
Gentlemen
The fall weather has turned cooler and with Halloween behind us, we can set our sights on our last big fundraiser of 2014 – our annual Christmas Tree sale. This year marks the 15th year of this St. Brigid “institution”. Please read below for more
details on how you can get involved:
MEETING REMINDER: November 10th – Fr. Tim Hepburn
Our next monthly meeting will be on Monday November 10th. We’ll start gathering at
6:30pm in Corbett Hall. Our guest speaker will be
Fr. Tim Hepburn, Vocations Director for the Archdiocese of Atlanta, at 7:00pm. We hope to see you there and encourage you to bring a first-time guest. Remember – if you bring a first-time
guest, both you and your guest eat for free – you can’t beat that deal! Please be sure to click the “EASY” button below to RSVP.
Christmas Tree Fundraiser – We Need Your Help!!
As mentioned above, our annual Christmas Tree fundraiser is right around the corner. We officially
open for business on Friday November 28th (aka “Black Friday”). As always, it’s all-hands on deck as we need your help to make this another successful endeavor. How can you help?
Here are some ways:
- Sign-up to volunteer – volunteers are assigned to teams that generally work 3-4 shifts. It’s a great way to share your time and talent within the parish, and we’ll have plenty of
food and adult beverages for everyone. Plus, we’ll have the big screen TV set-up so you can watch football. Oh yeah, and in between all that, help the customers with their trees . . . .
- Tree lot build out – on
Saturday 11/22, starting at 8:30AM, we’ll build out the tree lot. We can use plenty of hands to move items, put together the tree racks and get us ready for business.
- Tree delivery – our first tree delivery will take place
Sunday night 11/23 at 7:30pm. We need help unloading the trees from the delivery truck and placing them in the racks. This process usually takes about an hour.
In addition to helping out as a volunteer, we’d love to have you as a patron! You can
order online via the MOSB website at
www.menofsb.com. Also, encourage your friends and neighbors who need a tree to stop by the lot as well.
If you have any questions about the tree lot or would like to volunteer in some capacity, please email our “chief elf”, Jay Williams, at
jay.will...@statefarm.com
