ONE WEEK AND COUNTING!!!!

We are now one week away from OBR date NOV 6!!!  Volunteers are in place and last minute plans are being made.... this has been one exciting journey, fabulous people have volunteered to make this event a HUGE success, it definitely "takes a village" and we have that spirit RIGHT HERE!!!!  

The photo above is that of the Delta Quilters who were working on the capes as of Monday night.... remarkable women doing a great service to their community, through these costumes we will be giving people a renewed concept of the Salvation Army and what they do for our "East County".  It is so great belonging to a community who does not hesitate to jump right in!!!

Things seem to be set!!

The OBR committee met last night, some changes were made such as:

Salvation Army Brass Band will now be on Nov 6 at the Streets of Brentwood. We will have the Emergency Canteen  serving coffee and whatnot on Nov 20 for the Christmas Parade also at the Streets of Brentwood... (I'm not happy that the City of Brentwood choose to start construction on the main street before the parade, but the wishes of the Citizenry are not always the first consideration, so we are off once again to the Big Box stores... charming....
