10: February 25, 2007 - Impromptu Discussion

With the special dinner for the Police Officers from the 84th Precinct, Firefighters from Ladder Co. 118, and Engine Co.s 205 and 224 (if the firefighters were able to join us later), we didn't formally plan "a meeting". We did have a good discussion about upcoming activities, and poll for future ideas.

The topics brought up for future meetings were:

• Bowling - Scheduled for March 24th @ 2:00PM, Chelsea Piers
  
• NBA - Scheduled for March 18th @ Noon, Madison Square Garden
  
• NHL - Stephanie will check on tickets
  
• Roller Skating
  
• Mission Project - Father's Heart Ministries, KidZone
  
• Plymouth Church (underground railroad in Brooklyn Heights)
  
• The Bronx Zoo - at least for Stephanie and Mark
  
• Walk For or Against:
  
  
  • Multiple Sclerosis - April 22
    
  • Women's Cancers - May 5
    
  • AIDS - May 20
    
  • Suicide Prevention - June 9-10
    
  • Others???
    
  
  
• Patti's play - "Blood and Rum"(?), if age appropriate
  

9: February 20, 2007 - Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper

We mixed it up with a Tuesday night meeting, themed for Mardi Gras (or Shrove Tuesday). We had a great intergenerational mix of Youth and Supportive Web folks preparing the room and cooking the pancakes!

In addition to the pancakes (plain, chocolate chip, and blueberry) and strawberrys, juice, whipcream and M&M toppings, there were also games! A couple rounds of musical chairs, an inflatable jumping thing (just the right size for "little ones"), and other bead-earning activies. We had a rub-on tatoo station, a mask-decoration station, hats, party horns and balloons all adding to the festive pre-Lenten fun.

8: February 11, 2007 - Game Day

We did a re-scheduled game day. It happened to be during the Church-wide Annual Meeting, so it was really a drop-in, drop-out kind of a gathering.

Highlights of the day were from the Owens' game collection, Ker Plunk and the Flying Pixies Game!

Link to "old" Blog

I started my Youth Group Blog on Yahoo!'s 360 blogger, but the name was too hard for (some) people to remember [23-July-2009: Even worse, Yahoo shutdown their 360 service so the old blog, though still available, is REALLY impossible to remember], so I'll try going forward here on fpcbrooklynyouth.blogspot.com. We'll call it a new Blog for the new year...
