FIRST THE GOOD NEWS.... by the response I am getting this party is going to be HUGE!! More than we expected. Great for the fun, bad for the food count and the parking.
NOW THE BAD NEWS.... I have been advised to sell tickets to the party. Now, PLEASE dont everyone get your panties in a bunch. They are only going to be $5.00. Tickets will be available for purchase at JC's and at Chris'Rest. in Wallingford on Tuesday evenings when I am there for the meeting......and, at the door on August 2nd until we reach the capacity of the venue.
There is NO CHARGE for the Memorial Program...we will be wristbanding for the party.
I really really was hoping to not have to charge, however too many people have approached me about the fact that it IS a type of benefit in Billy's name and it very likely could get too crazy if we dont charge. I hope everyone understands that we need to have some assimilence of control over just how big this could become...and dont forget..... We are giving all the proceeds to a great cause!
Speaking of the "cause". After consulting with several organizations, I have decided we will "Make the most Difference" by donating what we raise to the City of Meriden Youth Services division. I will be skinnying up the details and posting when we have offical go ahead. You can contact me for information about the specifics.
One last thing, I will have have flyers, tickets(hopefully) and will be getting a count of volunteers for T-shirts on Tues. We still need volunteers! If anyone has any raffle prize donations to drop off, please be sure you give us who the donation is from so we can recognize and thank them appropiately.
See you Tues!
peace,
Lisa
