FAMILY CAMPING WEEKEND
BBC IS PLANNING another Family Camping Weekend at Oceanwood in Ocean Park, Maine for Columbus Day Weekend, October 8–11, from Friday night after dinner until Monday after breakfast. This will be a work weekend, so families will donate a small portion of their time to help out around the camp. This special weekend is filled with lots of fun and times of devotion. If you are interested in joining us, please contact Jeni Byrne (774-212-3959).
OLD-TIME COUNTRY STORE FAIR ITEMS
BOLTS OF CALICO, paper of pins, barrels of flour, bins of tea and a hand-turned coffee grinder—that was the old-time country store, its shelves stocked with necessities of rural life. The Country Store at BBC’s annual Holiday Fair will share that ambience, with shelves of jams, jellies, and relishes but with some added delicacies our forebears never knew. Such delights as herbal dip mixes, flavored vinegars and appealing snacks like trail mixes or granola bars will also grace these shelves. In fact, every kind of delectable goody your imagination and your kitchen can “cook up”. Please, mix up a batch of your favorite recipe for the November 6 Holiday Fair!
COMING IN SEPTEMBER…

Suggestions for salads include: Chicken Salad, Tuna Salad, Egg Salad/Devilled Eggs, Potato Salad, Pasta Salad, Molded Salad, Mixed Greens, Vegetable Salad and Fruit Salad.
