Play group tomorrow!

Hey mamas,

  I've been racking my brain for a play group place tomorrow, and I think I came up with a winner!  Did you know Chuck E. Cheese's opens at 9 AM?  Let's meet there at 10 for lots of fun!  I'm going to try extra hard to be on time too!:)  I don't know too many details (I tried to call, but it was difficult to get a real person), but from what I understand you buy tokens for the games and stuff, and admission is free.  I haven't been there in years, but remember LOVING it as a kid. 
  If you want to stay for lunch, I guess they have lots of food choices.  Anyway, it's 2006 Promenade Blvd. in Rogers!  Hope to see everyone there!

Third Batch of Corn is almost ready

 

Yesterday I was at the stake farm, located by Centerton Ward building.  I spoke with Bro. Isabell who oversees the farm.  There will be more corn available either this weekend or the first part of next week.  He was watering the corn again and said it should plump up and turn yellow by Saturday or Monday.  He asked me to let everyone in Centerton know, so please do not let it go to waste.  Thank you.

Great price for Peaches!

Hey Ladies!  Just a shout out... there peaches at Walmart on sale for 50 cents a pound!  Great price!

Message about corn for sale!

This is an update about the corn that is available... It is all at the Stake building.  There will not be any at the Centerton building.  So sorry for the change in info. Thanks!

Announcement from President Stout!

 President Stout is having us send out information about today's service project out at the Stake Garden.  The corn is being picked today and is being placed at each Church building in hopes that we as Stake members will go and get some for our families.  The corn can be paid for with a tithing slip marked "other" @ 10 cents/ear.   The Stake is hoping to make enough money from the sale of the corn to ensure the planting for next year.  Please help us make this possible.  Tell your neighbors, friends, etc about the nice corn at a great price and grab some for them while you're there.  Spread the word to other members so that nothing goes to waste.  Thank you for your help with this.

August Relief Society Activity

Hopefully everyone has been enjoying their summer vacations!  Our Relief Society Quarterly activity is right around the corner!!  Here are the details:

Service Exchange & Dinner

Thursday, August 12th

6:30 PM

Centerton Building

Sign-ups for food will be going around this Sunday.

For the Service Auction, please bring 1 wrapped service gift.  It can be an actual item, or a note telling a service that you will do in the near future (no longer than a month). Some examples are:  babysitting, lessons (piano, dance, etc.), homemade baked goods (bread, cookies), dinner, yard care, quilts.  We have such a talented branch that the options are endless. Just be sure to wrap what you bring.  We will be exchanging like a white elephant exchange.  I can't wait to see what awesome items show up - it will be a lot of fun!

Also, for those who have bumper crop gardens this year, we would like to have a "Farmer's Market" that night as well so that you can share the wealth.  We will send a sign up around to see who thinks they will have items to add to our market.

Please plan on joining us for this fun evening!

If you have any questions, please e-mail Stefani Hooper at smmhooper@hotmail.com, or call 273-2277.
