Date Change for 20s/30s+ Fundraiser
Yes, we are having a fundraiser this summer to raise money so we can continue the good work we do throughout the year. But our date has changed to June 24. This event will be on a smaller scale than those in '98 and '99 — we will have a dance, bar, light hors d'oeuvres and moderate decorations at the gym, but no silent auction or dinner. We need your help to make this event a success, so please attend the planning meeting on March 7 at 7 p.m. in the Youth Room.
WEEKEND RETREAT

Fr. Bob Noonan will be our leader for this weekend event, scheduled for Aug 4-6 at Silver Penny Farm in Petaluma. Our theme is "That they may have life." To guarantee your spot, send your check for $80 (made payable to OLA 20s/30s+) to Marilyn Norton, 1128 Cortez, Burlingame, CA 94010 by April 15. If you have questions or need further information, please contact Susan Winchell (trainersusan@yahoo.com).
