Another successful sausage sizzle

Hi all

Well we made a $350 profit on Sunday , many thanks to the Anderson family for their help ) We now have just over $3000, woohoo!!!!!

Joyah's Nan rashly promised earlier on a half way there party, we're gonna have to hold her to it very soon as I'm sure it wont be long before we have raised $3500 :) Only another $3500 to go, phew!

Thanks to all the people who have donated goods for TradeMe we have a few auctions going at the moment. Unfortunately they haven't been as successful as our previous ones but every bit helps.

Yes it's that time again!

Hi Folks

We have another sausage sizzle on this coming Sunday at Petone Warehouse. We have already had a very kind offer to take care of the 2-4 shift. So we are looking for volunteers for either the 10-12 shift or the 12-2 shift.

As always all help is very much appreciated :)

Thanks to all the people who have donated items for us to sell on TradeMe, our study looks like a second hand shop at the moment! Joyah is slowly working her way through listing the items, no matter how much items sell for it all helps :)

♥Many Thanks♥

Thank you very much to you all who have donated goods to sell on trade-me, spent time at the sausage sizzles and quite recently thanks to those who have donated buttons or brought button bracelets :). Also those of you who have made straight money donations or helped in any other way. We have made a decent amount of money at this point which not of been possible without your donation of goods or donation of time. It is definitely appreciated :).

Without your donation we would not of been able to reach $2700 by this point. Going to Canada is a great opportunity so please keep any donations coming.

From Joyah ♥♥♥

Another update

We had a pretty busy sausage sizzle on Sunday. Joyah was sick with the flu and was not capable of putting in any hours. Many thanks to Lynne Joyah's district co-ordinator, Robyn Best, Joyah's friend Rachel who was a very cheerful and willing helper and a great replacement for Joyah on the day and also to Jim and Clare who came all the way from Tawa to help and stayed an extra hour as well!. We did well as we raised $459!!! It actually would have been more if we hadn't been caught and needed more sausages. We had to buy them at the supermarket which is not nearly as cost effective as the Moore Wilsons ones! Oh well lesson learnt for next time, bring much more sausages than you need as you never know when you are going to be busy!

The balance of Joyah's account is approx $2700 :) :) We are thrilled with the progress and it could not have been done without the support of all our family and friends.

We have another sausage sizzle coming up at the end of the month. We will let you know closer to the time.

We have a nice pile of stuff to start putting on TradeMe but will always accept and appreciate any more.

We are still looking for someone to help Joyah with training for her 150 km bike ride any thoughts let us know.
