Seedy Saturday - Volunteers Needed
On April 6 UCM is hosting the 15th annual Seedy Saturday, an entirely volunteer-run event that is attended by many members of the broader community. Can you help by: taking posters to local shops, donating something to the Lucky Draw, assisting presenters with their audio-visual needs, volunteering in the kitchen or as a greeter for a few hours, donating soup or baked goods to the cafe, or helping with the clean up? If so please contact susanberry@hotmail.com or carole.berry@rogers.com.
Thanks for helping us make a great event.
Festive Fair Follow Up
Thank you again to all our terrific volunteers. It is not too early to start thinking about our 2019 Fair.
2019 will be my last year chairing the Fair. If someone would be interested in taking over in 2020, it would be terrific if that special person could work with me this year to ensure a seamless transition. Please let me know if this important position appeals to you
Treasure Trove
Judy Benger is seeking a special person to co-Chair this area with her next year. Please let Judy know if you are interested. Judy.benscheu@sympatico.ca
Please also think of the treasure trove if you are downsizing or helping a friend or relative do so. Judy is looking for small household items in very good and clean condition. Please note No items bigger than an airline carry on bag will be accepted.
Silent Auction
Please keep this area in mind if you receive gifts that you don’t need or have items that would be too valuable for the treasure trove. Sheila Bjarnason has kindly agreed to take on this important area again this year. Sbjarn@gmail.com.
