Get ready for a week and weekend bursting with excitement and the spirit of togetherness! We have a packed schedule starting on Wednesday that includes our Annual General Meeting, delightful breakfast, and a Rocking concert in the park. Each event is designed to strengthen our community bonds. Let’s delve into what awaits us!
Annual General Meeting: Shaping Our Future
Our weekend kicks off on Wednesday with the crucial Annual General Meeting (AGM). This gathering is a cornerstone of our community, where we discuss progress, share updates, and elect new Board Members who will steer our initiatives for the coming year.
Imagine joining community members as we deliberate on our future projects. Last year’s meeting led to the successful renovating of the building from the devastation of Hurricane Ian, we have seen a 40% increase in local participation. Then we had the floods of 2024, the replacement of the collapsed septic system and a very successful concert. Such achievements illustrate the power of collective voices and ideas.
Attending the AGM allows you to express your thoughts and concerns. It is not just a meeting; it is a chance for everyone to contribute to shaping our vision. Your presence matters, and each comment made could lead to a new project or improvement. Mark your calendars and come ready to engage as we select leaders who will make a real difference! January 8th Wednesday Evening at 6pm at the St. James City Civic Center.
Saturday: The Big Breakfast Extravaganza!
Next, we dive into Saturday's highlight: the Big Breakfast! For just $9, you can enjoy an unbeatable all-you-can-eat feast.
Think of the enticing aroma of pancakes, strawberries & whipped cream, sausage, fluffy scrambled eggs, biscuits, gravy and fresh coffee filling the air. This breakfast is not just about satisfying hunger; it’s a moment to mingle and reconnect. Did you know that last year we welcomed over 150 attendees, and many left with new friendships and collaborations?
Use this opportunity to engage in conversations that could lead to future community projects. Sharing meals fosters connections and strengthens relationships. Bring your friends, family, or even that neighbor you've yet to meet! Come hungry and ready for a delightful morning filled with delicious food and community spirit.
Sunday: Deb & The Dynamics in the Park
On Sunday, the festivities continue with a beautiful concert in the park featuring the talented Deb & The Dynamics. This event is not only about great music but also about supporting a vital cause—raising funds for the Pine Island Food Pantry.
Picture yourself on a sunlit afternoon, lounging on a picnic blanket, with music resonating in the background and laughter all around. Last month's concert raised almost $2,000 for the Civic Association; this one will be supplying meals for countless families in our area.
This day is about more than enjoyment; it's a testament to our commitment to helping those in need. Bring your loved ones, some snacks, and your best smiles. Let’s make this a heartwarming day filled with joy, music, and generosity!
Making the Most of the Weekend
This weekend is a fantastic opportunity for connection and contribution, from our important AGM to a hearty breakfast and a lovely concert. Each event provides a chance to engage, converse, and uplift our community spirit.
Welcoming new Board Members, enjoying a shared meal, and supporting our local pantry will create lasting memories that embody the essence of community. Together, let’s make each moment count. Whether you come for the meeting, the breakfast, or the concert, remember that your participation is what makes our community vibrant.
Let’s come together for a weekend filled with laughter, joy, and lasting connections!
