Depending on the number of volunteers available, we would also be able to drive around the community to pick up refundable bottles. So, if anyone has free time and could help out on Friday evening, please be at the school between 5:30-6:00pm to be given a collection route.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank a few people and organisations who have been kind enough to help out.
Thank you to Derek & Glenda Roberts for the purchase of plane tickets for our Let Them Be Kids representative who will be assisting us next week and on Build Day.
Thank you to Peter Norrad and Norrad's Redemption Centre for all the wonderful help and kindness they have shown us and for the use of a van for our bottle drives.
Thank you to the St. John Ambulance who will be on site on Build Day.
And last but not least, thank you to Pickett's Portables for port-a-potties on Build Day.
*******
And please don't forget to tune in and watch a community in Ottawa build a park this Saturday, September 15. You can follow their progress here and you can watch the webcast of their Build Day at the Let Them Be Kids website. We'll be broadcasting our Build Day over the world wide web on September 22, as well, so tell your family and friends who cannot help to watch all the excitement online.

On Saturday, September 15, there will be a flea market at the Hampton Curling Club. We will be setting up a table there and selling baked goods. If anyone would like to donate baked goods for us to sell, please drop them off at the Catholic Church Hall any time during the day on Friday, September 14.
*******
And don't forget today is Thursday and that means one thing here in Norton: bingo! That's right. Bingo. The doors open at 6:00pm tonight at the Norton Legion and the playing begins at 6:30pm. The more people who show up, the bigger the pay outs. Sweet. And, as always, a portion of the proceeds go towards the new park and playground.
