2010 Suitcase Report

On May 3rd, 14 large suitcases were brought to the Haitian Health Foundation in Norwich, CT. These will be filled with clothing and supplies for the families the HHF serves in Southern Haiti. We thank everyone who gave us suitcases, with a special thanks to Marilyn Pomeroy who has been our #1 suitcase scout! The needs in Haiti are great and ongoing. Please call us if you have a suitcase you no longer use. We will be happy to pick it up and see that it gets to the "poorest of the poor" in Haiti. (old hard-sider cases are especially useful.)

Many thanks!

CAROLYN YOUNG WILL GIVE A SECOND PIANO CONCERT ON JUNE 26

While all the details haven't been decided yet, Carolyn Young will be presenting another piano concert on the Hopkins' Steinway grand piano in our sanctuary on Saturday evening, June 26. Carolyn is a gifted pianist and the concert she pre­sented last June was a stunning and beautiful performance. You won't want to miss the concert this year. Save the date and look for more information in the coming weeks.

ROSELAND COTTAGE B&B TIME: It will be here before you know it and prepa­ration is underway for the Roseland Cottage Craft Show. With your help the Church will once again provide a Bed and Breakfast service for the artisans participating in the annual show. The Artisans are selected in May and begin requesting beds from us by mid June. It's important that I know early who can accommodate people and how many. Last year we provided 22 people beds for the week-end and served over 40 people at our Saturday night dinner. I am looking for peo­ple willing to share their homes October 15th and 16th. There will be a sign up sheet in the Great

Room. Please call me with any questions. Cheryl Swenson 923-9077

CHICKEN BBQ: It still seems far away, but knowing how fast the summer always goes by, before we know it, it will be Woodstock Fair time and that means, the Chicken Barbeque!

Help is needed on all days, all shifts. If you would like to help out with this smoky, greasy, crowded fundraiser, you'll have a lot of fun while helping the church AND we'll even throw in a ticket so you can enjoy the fair before or after your chicken shift. Please see John Cimochowski if you have any questions. A sign-up sheet will also be in the Great Room.
