Summer Camps last day
How was the last day of Summer Camp? Dave and I wish we could have been there.
I've already been thinking of ideas for next year. Are we going to continue to use this Blog throughout the year? Maybe Brian could set up a "Brainstorming Blog", where we could just blog our ideas as we think of them. I'm Blog Crazy now....all I wanna do is blog (hahaha).
Pastor Bob, as soon as I get Chuck's (Bayview Fire Department) last name I will post it, along with the address to send a thank you.
Hope everyone had a fabulous week!

Slip N' Slide Rental
Dave and I passed the Church on the way home from work and noticed the Slip N' Slide still hadn't been picked up by the rental company (Grand Rental Station / 484-9200). Did they call to say they weren't picking it up or did someone call them and request an extra day?
Just want to make sure we aren't charged for something we didn't request.

Monday - Stacey - 10:00 to 10:50 - Bayview Fire Company
- Did we include bathing suit reminder? The Fire Company has assured us the kids will get wet :-)
- We need a bullhorn for this and several other days.
- Bullhorn
- Still waiting on final okay for Fly By
Wednesday - Lou and Bob - 10:00 to 10:50 - Galloway Police Department
- Bullhorn
- Stacey will be posting details by Tuesday night
- Need commitment on counselors breaking down slide Thursday evening, after they've had a chance to use it themselves
- Amy's picking up water balloons and two slip and slides with some non-toxic soap and Stacey and I are providing a few water toys to occupy the kids waiting in line for the large water slide; certainly any other water toys are welcomed
- We need a few counselors to fill water balloons Thursday morning before the kids arrive
- We'd like to have a second showing of the DVD while parents arrive to pick up their kids; it would be good if the parents knew of this in advance
- We'll not be making DVD's but could have a shorter video streamed online. To that end, Lou will be providing the digital images such that Beacon EFC staff can put together a short video that can be streamed. This can be used as promotional material for next year provided we use pictures from our members and get their parents permission and pay attention to copyright issues with the music

Can you Help us Brainstorm DVD Copying?
I've copied an email exchange between Lou and I below regarding some challenges in trying to figure out how to copy the DVD's for the children. Read from the bottom up and please let us know if you have any thoughts on the subject...
Hi Lou,
That’s a shame. Perhaps we can put the video on the web for folks to download? What kind of file size do you expect the product to be?

Hi Brian, I also have bad news, Staples and Fed EX Kinkos do not do DVD copies. Let me know if you think of anything else. Please pass this on to the others.

Hi Lou,
The college is not going to work for the DVD copying, sorry. Stockton's closed on Fridays in the summer so we'll not have access to the equipment.

Update
Joe Blazo, from the Bayview Fire Department left a message and said that one of his Lieutenants is going to contact me and that Monday, July 21st shouldn't be a problem for them.
I left another message for Sgt. Frank Weir in reference to Wednesdays event (fingerprinting and/or K-9s).
I'll give both of these gentlemen until 3pm to get back to me and then I'll start calling again.
Have a great day!

Cool Events Team Needs
Hi Kelly,
I hope you don't mind me sending the following request as a blog comment. Pastor Bob wants to encourage the use of blogs, as you know, and I think you and I are the most comfortable with the technology. Thus, my request via blog!
The Cool Events Team has a couple of requests as we move forward. We'd like to ensure that parents send their children in with towels, super-soakers and sunscreen on Thursday when we will have a water slide for the children. The super-soakers are to keep the kids occupied while waiting in line for the slide. Lou will also be assisting in this effort by periodically gathering the children in groups of 50 for photos while they are waiting for the slide. We're assuming here you are sending a letter to parents and would like these three requests included in that letter.
We also wanted to touch base with you with regard to some of the timing. We know for sure the Coast Guard fly-by will be at 1:30 on Tuesday so we'd like the events team to have the 1:00 to 2:00 time slot if possible. Also we thought it might be good to let the children have a couple of hours Thursday so they can enjoy the water slide a little longer, say 10:00 to Noon.
Finally, we were thinking we could leave the water slide up for the camp volunteers the evening of Thursday. We've rented the slide from 9am on Thursday to 9am on Friday. We were hoping that, after the volunteers had their share of fun Thursday evening, they might be willing to deflate the slide, fold it up somehow, and put it inside the church for safekeeping. If this is possible it might be helpful to have one or two of them watch the slide being put together on Thursday morning.
Thanks so much for allowing me to blog this. I know that we have special role to play in spreading the word of Christ through this medium.
