I made a few phone calls this morning and moved a few steps forward on getting my fundraising event sorted. I've not arranged a venue, a date, a time, a theme and price for the tickets. I've also arranged to have a notice placed in the newsletters of St Mikes and Christchurch and to give some notices in the services myself in the coming weeks. Phew, not bad work for a morning!
On the downside though, the middle of August isn't the best time to organise an event as many people will be away on their hollidays. Christchurch will be especially hard hit as most of the congrigation are students. Still, I'm hoping that I can approach enough people directly to get 40-50 people to attend (although 20-30 would still be successful) and that should make a contribution to the fund raising.
