It's Oktoberfest
time again!! Labor
Day weekend at the County Fairgrounds on Bagley Road in
Berea. Single Volunteers is back again to help out and have fun
at this colorful, entertaining and huge annual event. !
Despite having fun, this is also one of the main fundraisers that
Single Volunteers does to cover our overhead and operating expenses ---Single
Volunteers gets paid for the number of hours we help out. ( You
probably noticed that we don't charge dues but still managed to
contribute $1,476 in 2009
to various community
service organizations and still had enough to provide free
pizza at all of our meetings. This is how we did it ).
On
Friday night, Sept 3, I am going to need 15 people to work in
the food tent on either the 5:00 to 8:30 or the 8:30 to midnight
shifts. Still plenty of room to get you on the schedule and this
is the main area that I am currently seeking help. Ask anyone who
worked the food tent last year what a good time we had!!
I'm pretty well covered
right now for Saturday,
Sunday or Monday,
Sept 4th, 5th and 6th ---- we only needed two volunteers
per shift to work in the main ticket booth. (12:00 to 4:00, 4:00 to
8:00 or 8:00 to 12:00). If you want me to take your name
as a backup in case something happens, please just let me know.
To sign up ( or if you have
questions) contact Pat at Dad5218@Roadrunner.com
. We had 36 volunteers helping out last year and we all had a ball
---plus we raised enough money to keep us up and running for the year.
Come on down and have fun with us while helping support one of the
finest community
service organizations in the Northern Ohio area. ( Yes, I'm
biased. So what?)

This event was closed before we even had a

have to work for two hours and can then attend the party ( tickets are
normally $150! ), CPT has been flooded with people who want to
help. What a surprise, right? Because of this they have limited
the number of volunteers that they are requesting from SV. The majority
of these positions will go to the people that have volunteered the past

We are invited to a Hike with
St Basil Adult Singles Group. Invitation Reads:
Due to enormous pressure from several.....NO.....make that hundreds
of members, we're heading back to Brandywine Falls . However, due to the
unfortunate incident last year and the resulting litigation, we will NOT
be going over the falls in steel drums. This year, we'll try our hand at
cliff diving, which some say is less dangerous. We'll meet at 3 PM in the
parking lot on Stanford Road , across the street from the Falls, which is
about 100 feet from Brandywine Road (2 miles south of State Route 82 and 1
mile northwest of Old Eight in Sagamore
Hills). We'll regroup at a local eating/drinking
establishment (probably Panini's on Royalton Road ) about 4:30 or 5 PM.
Contact ‘comedian’ Patrick M. (440-520-3249)
with questions; if he listens to his messages at all, there's a 50/50
chance he'll call you back. Caution: As
the water at Brandywine
Falls is only 2-3 ft. deep and the height of the falls about 60 ft.,
hikers should brush up on their shallow-diving techniques prior to the
event.

The food will be provided for us to cook , but if you could bring a

Remember
your favorite costume as a kid? Last year our members
told us they never ‘bought’ a costume, as a kid, but instead had
‘hand me downs’ or just found pieces and parts from a closet at home.
We invite you all to come dressed up at our Halloween
meeting. Bring back those memories of simple costumes
– you don’t need to spend a lot of money or wear a fancy store bought
costume. Shopping at the local Re-Sale shop is fun!
Hope to see you there!!!! Pictures from

ORNAMENTS
NEEDED:
The Strongsville Food Bank sponsors a 'Christmas for Kids' campaign
for needy children in this area. Crossroads Stitchers, sponsored by Just
Stitching in
Strongsville
, are making quick, easy cross stitch ornaments to be placed on Giving
Trees around
Strongsville
. Most trees will be in area churches and the Chamber of Commerce. The
finished ornaments will have gift request tags attached and area residents
select an ornament from the tree and provide gifts for needy children in
the area. There is a greater need for gifts this year, so consequently,
more ornaments are needed. Hopefully, some of the crafters in our midst
would like to help make ornaments. Copies of the patterns for this year
are available, or you can choose a design of your own. It does not have to
be anything elaborate and it does not have to be cross stitch, it can be
any type of media you want as long as it is handmade. Last year, we also
had machine embroidered and quilted ornaments. Just have fun! For more
info
, or to drop off completed ornaments, contact Sheryl (216-316-3928 or sheryllayh@yahoo.com
) or Shelly H at Just Stitching (440-572-9777). If you contact Shelly
directly, please make sure to let her know that you are with Single
Volunteers. Ornaments need to be turned in by Sat., Nov. 20, 2010.
