<font face="arial"><font color="red"><b>Christmas Fayre</b><br></font><p>
There are still a few jobs to do for the <b>Christmas Fayre at Brookmans Park School on Saturday 5th December, 2-5pm</b>. Now in its 4th year, this raises critical funds for the Youth Project and has become a popular annual community event, but we cannot do it without a little help from parents.<p>


<b>Childrens Tombola</b><br>
Thank you to those who have already donated. We still need lots of prizes so why not have a clear out and donate any unused, unwanted children's gifts. So far gifts have included box games, mugs, action figures, stationery, caps, loom bands. Please deliver to 36 Bluebridge Road, BP, drop off at any Friday meeting, at Brookmans Park School (black collection bins are outside both entrances) or we are happy to collect from you if you prefer. <p>

<b>Kids Jam Jar Hoopla</b><br>
Please can each member save an empty jar and fill it with kids goodies/toys/sweets/badges - anything that is new or unused that you might be clearing out. If you wish to decorate it that would be lovely (but not compulsory). If you don't have time to fill jars, then just donate the items in a bag and we will organise filling spare jars. Any empty jars gratefully received too.  

<p><b>Leaflet delivery</b><br>
If you can spare some time to deliver leaflets in a road near you, please get in touch. Leaflets need delivering w/c 16th November. 

<p><b>Raffle tickets</b><br>
We have kindly been donated some fantastic prizes this year and now need help selling the raffle tickets. Prizes include: iPad Mini, 1 night stay in 5* London Hotel The Grange, St Paul's, Champagne Afternoon Tea and Spa for two, Remote control helicopter, Climbing Session at XC, Free one month gym membership, Cinema tickets, Rollercity tickets and Meal for 2 at Miller and Carter, plus many more! If you think you can sell any tickets to family, friends or colleagues, please let us know and we will get a few to you.
