Coats for the Community 2010

It's that time of year again!

Junior Auxiliary's annual Coats for the Community giveaway is coming up next week. This is a service project meant to help the families and youth in Warren County who might not have access to cold weather gear. In addition to coats, we'll have (a limited amount of) sweaters, sweatshirts, hats, pants, accessories and other cold weather wear.

Here's the info:

WHEN: Saturday, November 6, 2010 - 11am until 1pm

WHERE: Three Star Mall (in the old Bookland building)

WHO: All sizes for girls, boys, men, women and babies

WHY: To provide cold weather wear to those without

Coats and other giveaway items will be given out on a first come, first served basis. Please call (931) 607-6599 or email jamcminnville@yahoo.com for more information.

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD!

Christmas Luminaries

Junior Auxiliary Christmas Luminaries are available now!

Make a $10 donation to JA of McMinnville in honor or in memory of a loved one and a luminary will be placed in their memory or honor at Christmas in the Park. This will be the third year for JA to do this project and we hope to make this year the best!

All proceeds from this finance project will go to support the many service projects that JA performs throughout the year.

Members: Christmas Luminaries packets were passed out at the September general meeting. If you haven't received yours yet, contact project chair Cole Black.

Start selling now because there's a prize for the member who sells the most! Each Luminary is $10 and you get one finance hour for every two luminaries sold!

Members of the Month - September

Each month during General Meeting, Sunshine Chair Anne Vance will choose several Junior Auxiliary active members to spotlight by sharing a few "fun facts" about them with the rest of the group. This is a great way for individual members to be recognized for the service they do for our community through JA and for all members to become better acquainted with one another. Contact Anne if you haven't filled out your member of the month survey yet.
