1st Build of 2012 for LTBK

Tonight is probably a night of little sleep for the folks of Providence Bay, Ontario as they anxiously await their Build Day tomorrow morning. How exciting for them, and for us to be able to watch it unfold. Thank God for technology. We would like to say congratulations to the Providence Bay committee and wish them a wonderful day building their dream. I just saw that we are down to 49 days,8 hours,26 minutes and counting and I am very excited and nervous at the same time.I really hope that we can build the playground and fitness park that the students of Hillside and Cape John Collegiate chose.We started a Penny Drive today, challenging the High school students to a race to fill up a water container with pennies. We hope that Hillside will cross the finish line first but CJC is up to the challenge. We believe in the power of "change!" We are rolling right along with our fundraising efforts. Currently we are selling tickets on an hand-stitched quilt made and donated by Dororthy Foster, a wonderful friend of the Playground Project. The ticket draw will be just in time for Mother's Day.If you are interested in purchasing a ticket, please contact either one of the committee members. As always, we thank you in advance for your continued support. Don't forget to check out Providence Bay Build Day tomorrow by going to www.ltbk.ca.
