<font face="arial"><font color="red"><b>Christmas Fayre</b><br></font><p>
<p>
We are organising our annual Christmas Fayre again at Brookmans Park School. This will be on the same day that the tree lights go on and Santa visits the village. Saturday 5th December, 2pm-5pm. This event raises critical funds for the Youth Project which enables us to continue providing all the activities we offer, but we cannot do it without a little help from parents.

Raffle Prizes</b><br>
Can any of you offer a raffle prize, or know anyone who might? Please ask your friends/contacts for us. It is a great PR opportunity for companies and will help us raise lots of money.

<p><b>Stall Hire</b><br>
We offer a wide range of products and have only a couple of stalls left. If you are interested in hiring a stall please contact us.

<p><b>Childrens Tombola</b><br>
This is a hugely popular stall, so we need lots of prizes! Why not have a clear out and donate any unused, unwanted children's gifts, large or small. So far gifts have included box games, mugs, action figures, stationery, soft toys, caps, loom bands. Please deliver to 36 Bluebridge Road, BP, drop off at a Friday meeting, or we are happy to collect if you prefer.<p>

<b>Estate Agents Boards</b><br>
This year Vanessa McCallum has agreed to sponsor advertising boards again. If you are happy to have one of her boards at your house for a week or two please let us know as soon as possible.

<p><b>Leaflet Printing</b><br>
Each year we distribute lots of leaflets to local schools and addresses. Is anyone able to help print these for us, or even just some of them? We need 800 A4 colour leaflets. Please get in touch if you can help.
<p>
If you can help with any of the above please contact <a href=\"mailto:fayre@nmyouth.org.uk\">fayre@nmyouth.org.uk</a>.<p>

<font face="arial"><font color="red"><b>Tidying up after meeting this Friday</b><br></font><p>We are well aware that tidying up the school after a meeting is the least favourite job of anyone, however if any extra parents would be able to lend a hand this Friday from 9:15-9:35pm we would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance.<p>
<font face="arial"><font color="red"><b>Gokarting Trip</b><br></font><p>

<font face="arial"><font color="red"><b>Outstanding Money</b><br></font><p>
Over 1,500 pounds is currently owed to the youth project by parents who have not paid for activities. As a voluntary organisation, our margins are tight and we simply cannot afford to have that much owed to us! If you are aware you have not paid money please ensure you do asap.<p> <b>  The management  committee have decided going forward that payment for activities must be received by the start of an activity otherwise unfortunately your child will not be able to take part. </b>
