Parents' Night Out

The Singles and College ministries are raising scholarship money for their upcoming retreat. They are planning 2 Parents' Night Outs at the church that you can take advantage of...

This Friday, Dec 1 and Friday, Dec 8 from 6-10pm
at the church--they will be set up in the lobby in front of the worship center near the nursery area.

Tree cutting details

We will be meeting at the McDonalds on Hampden and Galapago (think Cinderella City or Englewood Light Rail station).

We will be departing at 9:15am. If you plan to eat MickyD's before heading up, plan to arrive before 9am.

Tree cutters--you will need
A handsaw (no chainsaws, axes, or sawzalls allowed)
Tiedowns to secure the tree to your vehicle (we always bring a tarp too)
A full tank of gas
WARM CLOTHES

Also great to have
4 wheel drive or chains (no ATVs, snowmobiles or motorcycles though)
extra set of keys that you can keep in a safe place
shovel, blanket, food and warm drink

The forest service recommends leaving pets at home, but if you bring them they have to be on a leash at all times.

Smokey Bear will be in the forest for pictures near Forest road 550.

After tree cutting we'll head to the fire house. Free pictures with Santa for the kids...lots of food available for all. (This is a fundraiser for the Voluteer Fire Dept...and they also sell crafts, fudge in gift boxes, and ornaments)

We're looking forward to seeing you next week!
