Strawberry Festival  June 27

We need volunteers to pick strawberries, make shortcakes, provide various food/supplies, as well as many volunteers for the day.  Sign up sheets are on the table in Fellowship Hall. 

Bake Sale @ Strawberry Festival:  It’s time to be creative with a strawberry theme and make or bake an item for the Bake Sale.  Chocolate covered strawberries, bread, jams, or jellies, cupcakes, brownies with strawberry frosting, etc. will enhance this table.  There are 2 strawberry cookbooks in Fellowship Hall to assist your creativity!

Yard Sale @ Strawberry Festival:  Beginning this afternoon, items will begin to get priced so that there is less to do Friday evening under the tent.  It would be helpful if your donations could be dropped off in the living room area, off of the old vestry, by this Wednesday if possible.  The church will be open Wednesday morning from 10:00am - 12:00pm, as well as 4:30pm - 7:30pm Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings. 

Our Strawberry Festival Chair is Pam English.
