Out Reach

Witches Masquerade theme is suggested to be a medieval theme we still need to have a catchy name for the flyer. Other suggestions for possible future masquerades were a Hawaiian theme, Pirate Theme, Fairlayland, Mists of Avalon, Dragon's Lair, Wild West, King Arthur's, Fairy Tales, and Marti Gras The first planning meeting for witche's masquerade is the 24th. This should be publicized to the church as a whole and has been added to the church calendar.

Buildings and Grounds

Normally the 2nd Saturday every month, 9 am. Come and help keep the ground beautiful!

New Business

UU In The Pines

The possibility was raised of taking a weekend at UU In The Pines and hosing a mini-festival. No schedule was set, but this was suggested as a possible fundraiser for the church.

The first weekend in October is Pagan Pride at the UU Church of Clearwater.
