Wanted: Relay For Life
Team Members
The
"Flying Uniteds" Relay For Life Team needs at least 6 more
members in order to register the team for the Relay For
Life event, to be held on Saturday, June 14 and wrapping up
on Sunday, June 15. This event will start in the
evening at the Camrose Composite High School track and
relays teams will walk all night long until the event wraps
up on Sunday morning.
By
having at least 10 team members, we are able to space out
the walking and hopefully are able to pair up with each
other to make the walk that much more enjoyable. In
the past, we have had a tent set up, where our team would
meet and could rest and socialize throughout the event.
If you
are interested in walking, please call Cathy Andreassen at
672-4708. We will need to let the Cancer Society know
by the end of April if we are going to register a team.

AMONG
FRIENDS
THE GIFT OF HOSPITALITY
If you like to travel, and enjoy meeting new friends,
perhaps you should be part of the AMONG FRIENDS
network.
WHAT IS AMONG FRIENDS?
AMONG FRIENDS is a
hospitality/travel directory rooted in United Church homes
across Canada. Host families listed in the directory
welcome other U.C. people who are travelling in their area,
providing overnight accommodation for as little as $10 per
person per night - $15 if breakfast is served.
ORDER YOUR COPY NOW
The fourth edition of AMONG FRIENDS is currently
being prepared. It will be available in print form for
$20, and accessible online (by means of a username and
password) for $15. It will be current for three years.
If you use the directory even once, you will save more than
the price of it on your accommodation. To order your
copy, make your cheque payable to Allan Grose, and mail it to
the address below.
BECOME AN AMONG FRIENDS
HOST
There is no charge for listing your home as a host
destination. All you need is at least one spare bedroom
or space in your yard for an RV or tent, plus a gift for
hospitality. To request a Registration Form, contact the
coordinators:

AMONG FRIENDS
is a non-profit venture, offered as a service to the
national church. Its principal purpose is neither to
enable travellers to save money, nor to provide hosts with an
opportunity to make money. Rather, its purpose is to
build a network of friendship and solidarity among the diverse
people of the United Church all across Canada. We invite
you to share in the grace of giving and receiving hospitality.
