~ 9:30am - 12n in front of the #Mountainair PO. Rebecca Lueras is putting on an impromptu iCreate / musical outreach bake sale to raise funds for helping send talented local youth Shawn Brown (an iCreate music outreach alumnus) and his trumpet overseas for a very important and prestigious concert competition. Exciting, isn't it? I'm waiting impatiently for more details to share with you.
Donations and baked good to sell are also welcome. If you can help out by baking up or otherwise stirring up some sweets for sale, please call Rebecca, 847-0973, to let know so we'll have an idea of what we've got.
At the same time and table, Joan Embree will be selling tomato plants to raise funds (water and, literally, seed money) for the Community Garden. According to Joan, "We still have MANY tomato plants that need homes. Most of the remainders are beefsteaks and plums (Roma) tomatoes. Need some? Contact me at 847-2539. The plants are outgrowing their paper-cup pots."
After our morning of selling and good deed fundraising, we will retire to Joan's home at 407 S. Sunset, for a 12:30 pm Community Garden planning meeting and major decision making session as we consider 2011 directions and options (and we have them) of where to relocate our garden and about to be homeless seedlings. Interested in the Mountainair Community Garden? Bring a sandwich and join us.
