(1) This Friday is the Youth Eventz Good Friday service at Ryerson United Church. We are meeting there (i.e. 842 Main Street East @ Springer Avenue) @ 5:00PM. Don’t be late, cause the service starts @ 5:30PM and seats fill up fast. This is free…all you need to do is show up, and arrange to be picked up from there @ 7:30PM.

(2) Our combined indoor beach volleyball game is coming soon (i.e. Sunday, March 30th from 7-9PM). If you are coming, please hook me up with $10 sometime before that evening. Please arrange your own transportation to/from the event, but if you need a ride, let me know. The place we’re going is in Burlington (i.e. Mainway Sports, which is north of the 403, just east of Guelph Line at 3141 Mainway Drive).

(3) Laser Tag is less than a month away (i.e. April 11-12th)…I’m starting a sign-up sheet this week, and need to know FOR SURE if you are coming (and receive $30) by Tuesday, April 1st. This date is quite inflexible (i.e. I need to know if you’ll be there by April Fools Day). SO – find out if you are coming and let me know.

MP

MOVIE-MAKING (this friDAY)

In light of not having school during March break (and the countless hours of time potentially wasted doing nothing during the day), we'll be having a special day-time shooting of another STANDING GROUND PRODUCTION on Friday, March 16TH, starting at 9:00AM.

SO, meet in the youth room with you costumes/ideas/scripts and we'll shoot our second film - to be featured at this year's MEXICAN FIESTA (alongside "Quarreling Over a Lemon").

Peace,
MP

p.s. "Give it a stick"

CHILIFEST PLANNING NIGHT

This Friday night will be our first time of preparation for this year's CHILIFEST. We'll be getting a few things together in the area of decoration, tickets, and entertainment...including re-filming our video. One idea might be to re-film the best sections of the last random movie we made and use that as a short film, and then record a "feature-length" film next week during March Break (i.e. in the daytime).

SO, this Friday @ 7:00PM - bring video recording equipment (with a pre-formatted disk), costumes, and ideas for things that we can include in this year's CHILIFEST.
