Bently Farms National Night Out Winner

Hooray for Bently Farms, we won "National Night Out" this year! Here we thought the rain messed things up; however, with Becky's help, we all pulled it off!

Sorry there hasn't been any Freebie Posts lately. I have been buried with my embroidery business. I'll try to get them going on here again very soon!

National Night Out --- Slideshow

Hello neighbors!

Here are a few pictures that I had taken throughout our spectacular National Night Out last week! How wonderful it is to see so many new and familiar faces in our community. Thank you for taking a little time out of your busy schedules to come out and meet your neighbors! I haven't heard the results of who won the NNO, but at this point, I am not sure that matters. Within the last six years that we have lived in the community, this year's turnout was the largest. Thank you again Becky and Mike Cooper and the NNO committee for all that you have done to make this as successful as it was this year! ~Mindy R.

Checks Unlimited

Hey Neighbors:

Make sure to take a look at previous posts:

Coupons and Becky's Trunk Party this weekend!

I just ran across an awesome deal this morning through Checks Unlimited. If you're like me, you don't use that many checks; however, you still use some. I have always used Checks Unlimited to get my checks and never been disappointed.

I visited their site this morning and had two boxes of checks in my cart that added up to almost $32. I thought wow, that's alot of money I wonder if there is a code out there I can use for some savings. Well there was. After visiting Retailmenot.com, I found a code to use that brought the price way down per box of duplicate checks, gave me sixty sticky address labels free, and free shipping!

Using this code: 74YD at checkout brought my grand total to $17!

If you are close to needing checks, I would definitely recommend using Checks Unlimited with the code!

Our School Children Are Not Allowed to Talk

Dear neighbors I just resently found out that in the mornings when our children arrive to school they have to go sit in the gym and are not allowed to talk at all. They are allowed to read or do homework, I do not know of a single kindergartener who can read and it isn't until the middle of the first grade year that they can even read Dick and Jane. The doors of the schools open at 7:30 and most of the buses arrive at 7:35. That leaves our children sitting in silence for 30 to 40 minutes until the bell rings. I am lucky that I do stay home and can take my children to school, but that could change tomorrow. I have brought my concerns and remedies to the principal, which was recieved luke warmly. She has decided to start only with the kindergarteners, to be pulled out of the gym and read to by a volunteer. I am asking all parents to please help me and our children with this issue. Every volunteer is needed to turn this from a daily or even weekly event to a monthly or to maybe annually. To our early rising seniors, what better way to start your day than to help teach our future. I am hoping that a month after helping our kindergarteners we will be able to help the rest of the school. All that is needed is to fill out a three line back ground check and we will be in business. contact me jeaneeneli22@yahoo.com

NNO

The police department has informed me there is no scheduled rain date for NNO- as many of you saw on the 10 pm report last night there is a possiblility of some rain Tuesday. If the lot we plan on having the event on is too wet we will move it to the street.

If the rain is to hard to do that we will have a gathering in my garage. Now remember folks my garage is not as big as the street so it will be standing room only but we will be able to do the drawing for the prizes along with visiting with neighbors and friends.

Alot of hard work has gone into this project and we want everyone who can to come out and join in rain or shine.
