Thanks Errol Sounds perfect. Sylros said she could help! I think the 2-3 of us would be perfect! for the event since Sylros is Bilingual.

Bruce, I could be there for an hour or so until Sylvie shows up. So from 11:00 to 12:00.
Does that help?

Who do you have to go to this location? I can probably make that date, and my husband who's a salty, hinted he would help as well. We happen to get along with AZ, we can make it fun!

But if there's already someone, that's OK.

I said I could be there after work by about 4:20 , and stay until close (6:00)
You're welcome to either take my "shift" or cover some time before then... it's a Monday

True! You did say that...nope I'm not taking away your spot, I meant that we were willing to take some time off from work to go there during the day. I've got volunteer time that I can use, my husband, well, he works from home and doesn't have fixed hours like most of us do.

I wanted to make sure that the spot was still empty. So we'll do that then?

Thanks to Bruce, Sylvie & Andre for volunteering your time today.

To add another note...

For sponsors who are hesitating in letting us in to do a membership drive, it will attract existing members who likely won't be able to walk out of the store without buying something.  I went to support the troops and managed to spend almost $50

I can't be there tomorrow as I am babysitting my little (heavy) grandson on Saturday but will try to pop by at the Farmer's market on Sunday. I've never been there.

On Monday, I've got the afternoon off only as a meeting got scheduled in the morning before I could block it off. Will be there latest at 1.

Good luck tomorrow!

I will be at Fishtails in the afternoon as soon as I finish helping my son move. This was not in the cards when I volunteered to be there a few weeks ago. My apologies.
I will drop in at the Farmer's Market and at 4:00 at Az on Monday. Doing what I can!

Hi Andre, the AZ part can be skipped if you need to pick and choose where as me and my husband will be there along with a few others. Just saying...but I always say the more the merrier!
