Outdoor Cleanup Day - Wow!

Many faithful Peoples folks attended the Outdoor Cleanup Party on Saturday, November 6! Workers raked leaves, cleaned out gutters, trimmed hedges and even installed the new banner on the outside of Ellis Hall. We also saw the finished product of the overhauled bean supper sign.
    All of the work is amazing so be sure to check it out and say thank you to those who cared enough about their church family to work so hard on a Saturday morning!

Note from Chuck Kamilewicz:  A special 'thank you' to all those who were there, and to David and Carol who refurbished the bean supper sign with Lexon and vinyl lettering.  It looks so good.

Note from Sue Angell:  Fall clean up was a great success.  Two troop leaders and 4-5 scouts were amazing in that they cleaned a huge area of leaves in 3 hours!!!  Marlene spent 3-4 hours on her knees working on our garden and what a fine job she did. Art Tordoff, our bush wacker, trimmed all our parsonage bushes while Keith Snoddy trimmed raked.  David Bruneau was THE man with his motor on his back and leaf blower with which he blew leaves and cleaned the parking lot as well as then mowing the parsonage lawn. David also gifted us with a NEW and wonderful Bean Dinner outdoor sign!  Carol was here there and everywhere working on and hanging a church banner and washing windows. Becky Gottlieb showed up after working most of the morning at her job and cleaned windows in the breezeway and worked until she ran out of steam. Chuck scaled the parsonage and replaced all down spouts and then replaced boards on the parsonage deck.  Joanne took good care of us by sending sausages and biscuits. Rosemary Herd greeted us all with a great smile and kept fresh coffee coming and assisted in the stage set up for the variety show and digging up of Christmas Fair decorations from last year.  Kathy was there. Brad was everywhere.  He brought coffee first thing, helped Marlene, raked, lifted barrels of leaves, assisted Art, assisted everyone, etc.  Susan and Kathy raked and hauled  barrels of leaves and bushes.  Walter brought his truck, tools and tarps.  His truck trailer was filled to the brim with leaves!  He brought cold pack tar and mended various areas of the parking lot and sidewalks with the assistance of Brad and Chuck tamping it down.  Men love that stuff. We all left tired, dirty and satisfied!  Hard work, fresh air and good companions are the best health tonic there is!
