It’s hard to believe that in five
short weeks our festival of fellowship and fun will be underway!
Please sell your tickets. Remember: the more
tickets that you sell to someone outside the parish, the
more people that hear about our festival!
We’re still in need of some prizes.
We’re looking for donations of prizes such as trips,
electronic equipment, special services and such that can
be given away as prizes. If you are able to secure, or donate
any such items, please call the Festival Office at (313)
937-1530,
extension 142 or e-mail us at srbfestival@comcast.net.
Thank you!
Ticket Returns: Ticket returns may be
returned in the collection basket from now until the festival.
The ticket committee will be available to accept returns
on the weekends of August 4 & 5, 11 & 12, and 25
& 26. Every ticket that you can sell to someone outside
of the parish
not only advertises our event to more people; it also helps
you achieve your sales quota to have an opportunity to win
the $1,000 prize for all 100% Club members. Let’s
all do everything that we can to reach our $100,000 goal!
Bakers Wanted, We’ll Even Pick Up
Your Goodies!: The fun and popular Cake Walk will be back
this year, and we need your tasty baked goods to make it
a success. If you can bake, but you’re unable to drive
your baked goods to the festival, don’t worry. We
can pick them up from you! If you need your baked goods
to be picked up,
please call Michelle Howe, who’s in charge of the
Cake Walk,at (313) 378-1787. Thank you!
Calling All “Green Thumbs”:
Get Your Plants Ready for the Flower Wheel! One of last
year’s new games, the Flower Wheel, was a great success!
We want it to be even more successful this year. Mary Prouty,

all gardeners get their plants and clippings ready for this
