Christimas Cake Baking

Thank you for all your efforts in getting the 410gm cans to us. The first Christmas cake bake at Otumoetai College's kitchen went extremely well. We had wonderful help from Sue, the leader of last year's Christmas cake baking effort. We made 150 cakes (with some failures reserved for sampling), and left the kitchens cleaner than we found them.

Please go out and start selling the Christmas cakes today!

We can actually deliver those that are already baked, so no need to wait until the time for Christmas approaches.

General Meeting Tuesday Oct 23

Thanks to all for coming to the meeting. Reporting by Jason Ellwood on organizational and payment issues. Presentation by fundraising committee. Next general meeting on Tuesday, November 20, at 6pm, when our next installment payment will be due.

Please get as many 410gm cans as possible, and bring the cleaned cans over to Cathy Taylor's by this coming Friday, Oct 26.

Thanks very much. With your help, the fundraising effort will be a lot of fun.
