Lifeline Northern Beaches Giant Book Fair at Warriewood The first Lifeline Northern Beaches Book Fair for 2011 will take place on the weekend of 25‐ 27 February. The full details are below. Help wanted Everyone’s buzzing with the news ... We have been awarded the rights to perform West Side Story. So now the planning begins. Venue: Ted Blackwood Hall Cnr Jacksons & Boondah Roads, Warriewood Dates/Times: Friday, 25 th February (5pm ‐ 9pm) Saturday, 26 th February (9am ‐ 5pm) Sunday, 27 th February (9am ‐ 3pm) Visa, Mastercard and EFTPOS all accepted. Entry by gold coin donation very much appreciated The Book Fair is a great opportunity to grab a supply of children’s books to encourage reading at home and at a very low cost. The proceeds from the Book Fairs are directly invested into Lifeline’s support services to the Australian community. This was recently reported in the media: “Lifeline has seen a 50% increase in calls over the past weeks from people right across the country, not just in flood impacted communities. Lifeline CEO Dr Maggie Jamieson said ‘Our volunteers have spoken to people about grief, loss, hardship and pain. We now expect to begin to receive crisis calls related to the coming cyclone in Queensland, which will certainly have an emotional impact on people.’ If you are interested in helping in any way, but particularly if you would like to help with costumes, please send in an expression of interest. We will contact you when we have a production meeting. Phone Judy Boylan in the office – 9905 3982 or email Judy.Boylan@det.nsw.edu.au ... and speaking of costumes ... At the working bee last year a band of wonderful willing parents transformed an old and ancient room under the TAS block into a fabulous space for both costume storage and work room. BUT it is currently chaos and will need some effort to bring it to ordered perfection. If you think you might like to help with this project, please do let us know. We’ll find a mutually acceptable time to make a start on this venture. However it will have to be fairly soon before the musical making begins. Contact Judy as per above if you are interested.
