Harvest Party 2011!
Reminder of the Harvest and Potluck Lunch at Gretchen’s home– 106 Tamworth Rd– on Saturday, Sept 8th beginning at 9:30 am. If you have old towels or cloths for drying off goards-please bring them.  All are welcome!  Come to harvest, wash gourds and pumpkins or even just socialize.  Lots of fun was had last year.  Pray for good weather.  We will schedule an alternate date if it’s raining.

See Gretchen to sign up to help and cook for the FAIR BOOTH!

 The reconstruction of our ramp entrance is still under way!!!  The entry is presently inaccessible. Instead, you will need to walk across the lawn behind the Parish Hall and enter through the east door which will be kept open when events, including office hours, are taking place. If walking is difficult for you, a vehicle may drive in at the east end of the building, passing the Prince Room chimney, giving you easy access to the door. Under no circumstances is anyone to drive around the rear of the Parish Hall, which would entail going over our septic tank which might not support the weight of a vehicle!!! If you have a key to the building and are here at off hours, you will need to use the main front door of the church.
Special thanks to Bill Lord, one of Barbara's sons, who has put in quite a number of hours digging the drainage ditches that are art of the ramp project. Many continuing thanks to Duane for his work on decision-making, carpentry, and other jobs associated with the ramp. Next step will be a return visit from John Roberts to help with final digging, drainage pipes, and crushed stone. Paving comes next!
