Update on my fundraiser!

I just heard from Rosco the Clown. He is going to attend the fundraiser on May 5th doing balloon animals for the kids. What a great guy! We will be able to put up a box for donations for the balloon animals and maybe make a little more towards our fundraiser! I will post any new details as I get them as well as the times when he will be here!

Save the date...Saturday, May 5th!

Finally! We have a date. I am putting together an Autism fundraiser. It will be on Saturday, May 5th at Dynalec in Sodus. It will consist of a bake sale as well as a craft sale. If you have a craft that you would like to make a donate, that would be great. Also, anyone who is willing to bake and donate some goodies, that would be great too! Please contact me and I will keep everyone updated!

If you are intersted in any of these, please contact me either on here or at my email erinmast@yahoo.com and I can tell you how to make payment. As always all proceeds are going towards Autism!!!

Thanks for another great meeting!

I cannot believe that February has come and gone. We just had our March meeting already. It was nice this month. Very informal. We discussed service coordinators and school issues. Next month is going to be the Advocacy Center with their presentation on Building your advocacy notebook. Right now we are playing phone tag. It will be a longer meeting as they need a little more time. So, the meeting for April will run from 6-8. I will keep you all updated with the information as I get it.
Also, for those of you who are affected by Autism...April is Autism awareness month and I am trying to set up a fundraiser for our annual Autism walk. If you have any ideas, let me know. We have already discussed a bake sale, the Autism cookbook plus I am making some crafts with some Autism awareness fleece. If you have any crafts that you could make and donate that would be great. Also, let me know if you are willing to bake some baked goods and donate those. We will also be in need for people who are willing to work at the fundraiser. Just a few things to keep in mind. The fundraiser will fall either the end of April or the beginning of April depending on the print date of the cookbook and the weather.
