Writers Group Changes to Daytime.
The MSPC Writers Group meeting time will
be changed to the first Wednesday of each
month at 10:00 a.m, beginning in December. This
change is taking place due to increased interest
in a daytime group, as well as the inability
of many writers to attend in the evenings.
Our next meeting will be on Wednesday, December
5, at 10:00 a.m. in Fellowship Hall. Please bring
paper and a pen, along with any writing you wish
to share with the group. Feel free to bring a snack.
Coffee will be available. Everyone is welcome.
For more information call the MSPC Writers Trepidation
help-line, at 402-4009.

Name a great fund-raising goal and chances are
it's among hundreds that these organizations are
already funding by collecting all types of clean,
dry paper from their community. Abitibi-Consolidated
Recycling Division provides this program and collection
service at no charge to each location. Bright green
and yellow containers - called Abitibi Paper Retrievers® -
are placed in highly visible, convenient areas
where residents can drop off their newspaper, magazines,
shopping catalogs and mail. Usually, the majority
of the paper is received from the surrounding neighborhoods.
Even areas that already provide curbside recycling
are successful in raising money by providing a
convenient place to drop off paper when families
know that your organization will benefit from their
donation.
We need all your: newspapers, magazines, shopping
catalogs, office & school papers, mail
Please do not include: plastic, glass, metals,
trash
The Retriever is located in the parking lot next
to storage shed.
