Please consider donating to CMU Public Radio by Monday, December 13. We pool our donations annually to “buy” some radio air time. Last year we gathered about $1200, which gave us two spots every second week. Write your check to CMU Public Media, and send it to Mary Alsager at 1311 E. Broadway, Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858. If you have questions, please contact Mary via text at 989.330.2226, at her home at 989.773.2595, or malsager@yahoo.com. Thank you for considering supporting public radio and giving us an advertising voice.

Truly a community effort!
Thursday-Saturday, June 10-12, staff the sale in two-hour shifts starting at 8am, with extra volunteers at 7am the first day and noon on Saturday.
Please sign up for a few missing slots: Friday, June 11 - need 2-3 people for 7:00 am, one for 8-10 am, and one for 10-12 am Saturday, June 12 - need 1-2 people for 7:00 am, two for 8-10 am, and 2-3 for 12-2 pm Update of Needs
Please continue to save anything that we could sell at our garage sale on June 10, 11, and 12 at Norma Bailey’s home. We will also include a plant sale during the event, so think about plants you might be able to donate. Right now we are in need of saw horses, large boards, and tables; please contact Norma (989-560-3952 or baile1nj@cmich.edu) to set up delivery of these items. Next week, we’ll send out a sign-up sheet for sorting and pricing the items and for staffing the sale, so please keep some time open June 1-12 to help with this; let’s make this a truly all-UUFCM members’ and friends’ effort! Next week we’ll also announce when people can bring items over. We will have a scrap metal drive on Friday and Saturday, May 14 and 15, to earn money to support our leadership development fund. We will pick up your scrap metal on Friday, and you can drop it off on Saturday by 11am at 306 W. Grand Avenue in Mt. Pleasant. Contact Laura McBride (989-772-5512 and lmcbride010@gmail.com) for pick up or questions.
