RUN FOR L'ARCHE
We need people with great energy to be course marshals on
Saturday, March 22nd on the Bow River Pathway. Every year, our race
gets rave~reviews from our 600 par~c~pants and a big part o~that is
the encouragement and direction they receive from the volunteers on
the race course.
last year, the Run for L'Arche raised over $50,000 for L'Arche Calgary's homes and programs for
adults with developmental disabilities, pushing our three-year total over $100,OOO!The funds
raised at this event make a huge impact on every member of the L'Arche Calgary community. Our
race is also a big date on L'Arche Calgary's calendar and they all turn up on race day to celebrate
their inclusive vision of sharing and community.
This iswhat we need:
Course Marshals
A commitment of 4.5 hours on Saturday, March 22nd (9:30 AM to 2:00 PM)
Excitement and positive energy
This is what you will get for volunteering:
A connection to the L'Arche Calgary community
A chance to volunteer with 150 other awesome Calgarians
A beautiful Run for L'Arche volunteer t-shirt and goodie bag

Great Strides Walk for CF Calgary is an event that Team KIN has participated in for several years.  Last year we raised over $22,000!!!

The High River Kinsmen have served BBQ hamburgers and hot dogs to every participant and the Stampede City Kinettes are working hard at registration!  This year, we’d like to make Team KIN the biggest and most enthusiastic group at the event EVER!

The walk is Sunday, May 25th at the North Glenmore Park 10:30am to 4pm.  Fellowship will follow afterwards.  Let’s show CF that Team KIN is serious about supporting them by signing up the most members in history.

Even if you can’t come out for the walk, you can still join and raise donations.  Just copy the link below and send out emails to co-workers, friends and family.

Cheque presentation and VIP passes to the Flood Aid Concert

Event Date: 
Thursday, August 15, 2013 - 5:00pm to 11:59pm
Description: 

Hi Gents,

Here is an exciting update to our cheque presentation opportunity at the Flood Aid Concert Thursday August 15th.

 At present we do not have an on stage opportunity but Russ Kane is working on a new angle.

 What we do have is access to the VIP pre event party at the Red and White Club. Details to come regarding the program to present the cheque to the Calgary Foundation for $75,000.00

 They are giving us 20 passes to this event which includes food, a host bar and a private area to watch the concert.

 I’ll take 2 of the tickets.

 I need 18 more to step up and sign up.

 The event starts at 5pm on Thursday August 15. Once I have all 18 filled up I will pass a list to the organizers and your name will be at the front entrance to the Red and White Club, show ID and you are in.

 I know a bunch of folks are going to National and on holidays, so I’m hoping to have a good turn out. This is a great opportunity to also showcase who we are and our presence with the corporate folks there will be priceless.

 I will need a person that can be in charge, present the cheque and be ready to say a few words. I won’t make it there until later. Plus I need Hoss filled if that is still a go at this event.  I need some one to take a few pictures as well.

 There is another event there that I am waiting to get details on and that is a Tailgate party near by. Hoss can for sure dance around there. Stay tuned for more info on that.

 I will try and post an event on our web with sign up, if I can do that?

 For now let me see a show of hands who can make it to this and fill the positions above. Red Kin shirts a must as well.

 I’d like to thank Russ Kane for the idea of donating the $75,000.00 and both Russ and  Matt for working hard dealing with AGLC to make this happen and for all of the members who voted in favor.

Regards and cheers,

Wendell
