HOLY CROSS ALUMNI
Dear St. Bernadette Elementary,
Alumni of Holy Cross has created the the Holy Cross Alumni Association and we are trying to reach as many former students as possible. We truly want this to be a success and therefore are asking for your help. As many of those who went to Holy Cross now have children in CISVA elementary schools, we are asking for a mention of the Holy Cross Alumni Association in your school newsletter for a few weeks, preferably the month of December. (Please see attached document.)
On behalf of the Holy Cross Alumni Association, I thank you for your time and consideration of this request.
Sincerely,
Sheila Vader

Thank you.
If you have any questions, please e-mail grade6@stbernadette.ca

BINGO – IN DANGER OF CLOSING!
There was miscommunication in the recent bulletin that stated Bingo had enough volunteers. It has in fact received interest, but no commitment at this point.
Our St. Bees Bingo is in critical need of more volunteers! If we do not have enough volunteers trained an in place by December 19th, we will have to close our Bingo. Please consider volunteering one Tuesday evening a month to keep our Bingo open. We are most in need of callers!
The revenue that the parish receives from bingo is significant ($75,000+ annually) with the majority of the funds going to the school. It is the main fundraiser for our school. With Bingo gone it would be a great loss felt by our parish and school community. PLEASE, Contact the Bingo office at 604-596-1833 if you can help.
