things to do! people to see! places to go!

Tomorrow is the first day of October. Are you ready for a brand new month?
I hope so--there are so many things to do, especially just this weekend! Kathy Seymour sent a list of fun things to do, so I'll put them in this post in case you missed Kathy's email.

Also, please check www.komenarkansas.org if you would like a list of all the upcoming activities.

If you haven't registered yet (why not?!), or have friends or family who need to register, they can still do so online at the Komen website.

Remember, the Race Space opens one week from today!
Komen items always make good Christmas gifts, plus you are helping raise money for Komen when you shop there.

Thank you for being such an awesome team---Go Bookends!!

sizzling......

Whew! It was HOT down at Dugan's Pub last night!

Abbie, her daughter Katie and I ventured down there to get a copy of the Komen 2012 Calendar, which depicts 12 of LR's finest, and I do mean finest! firemen...
Ladies, if you have not gotten your calendar--you need to RUN to the Komen office and pick yours up! Or, you can go to the Arkansas Komen website (www.komenarkansas.org) to purchase them.
Then come to the next meet and greet event where the men are usually available to sign their pictures, flirt a bit, and give hugs.
The next opportunity to meet these hotties is:

October 6th
Bar Louie at Pleasant Ridge @ 5:30 p.m. til...
11525 Cantrell Road
Little Rock, AR 72211


They really are the nicest guys,and if you think none of these guys will ever show up at a fire, Mr. January was actually one of the responders at a fire at my old apartment complex a year or so ago.....so if you need some fires put out--chances are pretty good that one of them will be rushing to your aid!

Remember, Christmas will be here in THREE short months, so why not surprise your BFF with one of these calendars? (And put one in your own stocking!)

Cheers!

Buzz buzz buzz

Things are getting to be as busy as bees with Komen activities!

The warehouse is now astir with activities as volunteers are busy folding tee shirts and stuff envelopes, and the Race Space chair is looking for volunteers to man the Space when it opens October 7th.
This year both the warehouse and the Race Space will be conveniently located in one space: the old Post Office building behind the Pleasant Ridge shopping center off of Cantrell (Highway 10).

So, if you have time to help at either the warehouse or the Race Space, contact your Team Captain Kathy or the Co-Captain, me, and we will get you settled into the hive of activity!

Also, there will be plenty of buzzing around Dugan's Pub tomorrow night (9-15-11) about 7pm---those hotty worker bees, central Arkansas' finest Firemen, will be on hand to personally autograph your 2012 Komen calendar! What? You don't have a copy?? Well, come on down to 3rd and Rock streets, and for $15 each you can get your very own calendar! And, don't forget---they will make PERFECT Christmas gifts! And just think of how nice your wall will look all year long with 12 hunky firemen...

So-- volunteer at the warehouse, the Race Space, and then reward yourself with a calendar (or two) at Dugan Pub!
