Hi All!
Wanted to make sure that everyone was aware of and had the opportunity to sign up for a couple of things happening this week and next –

1)      Bishop’s Storehouse – we still need two volunteers to serve at the Bishop’s Storehouse this Thursday, September 11 from 2:45 to 5:30. Volunteers need to wear close-toed shoes. I know it is a not the most ideal time, but please sign up if you’re schedule is open – people who have served say it is a lot of fun and very rewarding experience
2)      Enrichment Night! September, 17 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. This is will be a very fun evening and we hope everyone can come. Four things to sign up for and/or participate in –
a.      Halloween Decoration/Banner – cost is $15 and if you plan to make, please bring pinking shears, craft scissors, an iron, and a glue gun (we’ll have a few, but please bring if you have these things)
b.      Halloween Treats - Seen something on pinterest that you want to try before you make it for the BIG NIGHT!? Here's your chance to try it out and share the results (good or bad, let us be your guinea pigs)!
 Here's a site with an example:

And some more ideas -

c.       Missionary Care Package – We’ll be putting together a Help support the missionaries in our ward by bringing items for a care package - we will also have supplies to write notes and letters to our missionaries:
-          Elder Braiden Green
-          Sister Jasmine Zamani
-          Elder Nathanuel Davis
-           Elder John & Sister Caroline Viernes
 What can we bring for a care package? Here is a site that has some GREAT ideas (note – not specific to LDS missionaries):

What's NOT a good idea - items that are HEAVY in weight and quickly perishable or that will MELT.

d.      BABYSITTING!! Will you need a sitter for the evening – we plan to provide babysitting, but would like to know what the need is so that we can plan ahead with sitters for the evening. So, if your child (or children) will need babysitting, please sign up!

Use the button in the upper right to sign up or use the following link - they'll both take you to the same page!
