HI All,
I am trying ot get the email list going, please let me know if you want to be added or taken off the list.
I have talked with Apple bees if this is something we would want to do please let me know. We talked about this at our last meeting and thought that it might be something we would like to try. It runs from 8 am to 10 am. They have three date in March and April is wide open. I have put it on Facebook as well so it would be open for discussion.
We would need to sell a minium of 50 tickets and upto 315. The tickets are $5 each, we would make $3 on each ticket sale and they would get $2.The ticket includes tes, coffie, juice and pancakes. We would need as many parents and youth to put this on, we would collect the tickets at the door, serve the coffie, tea and juice and work in the kitchen to bring out the pancakes.
After the breakfast we could hold a meeting.
Thank You,
