We will need to discuss any areas not covered and determine if they can be covered, or if they need to be eliminated from the plan. Things are progressing nicely and there is alot of excitement in the air!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brochures have been mailed. We have mailed approximately 3,200 to date. Thank you for helping with the stuffing, sealing, stamping & sorting of this huge mail-out!
If you are interested in selling any of the car raffle tickets, please come by the St. Francis Office and pick up a few.
Mrs. McMinn would be happy to have you help sell tickets!
If you would like to check with your Pastor and see if you can sell tickets after Mass that would be a great way to help as well. We can provide a large board with the raffle information on it.
A few reminders of upcoming dates:
Friday, September 24th - Mercy Day - A Mass celebrating the Sisters of Mercy will be held at 9:00 am in the St. Aloysius Gym. Reception following the Mass.
I hope you all have thought about being in the Homecoming Parade! We are in the process of preparing letters for the former Flashettes & Cheerleaders inviting them to walk in the parade and perform the Fight Song at the Pep Rally on Thursday, September 30th!
Saturday, Oct. 2nd: We will have a booth at the Fall Arts & Craft Show around the Courthouse Museum and need volunteers to help at the booth!

I will be unavailable from 10:00 until about 2:00 pm that day because the Class of 1990 is having their reunion at St. Aloysius High School in the cafeteria & on the playground, and I will need to be present there with them, as a faculty member, and to give the tour, etc.
