Pastor Ingo R. Dutzmann and his parish will again host our Club for wreath making on the lower level of The First Lutheran Church of Boston, 299 Berkeley Street (on the corner of Berkeley and Marlborough Streets). We are very, very grateful. The hours are as follows:
Monday, December 7 – 8:30 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. (set up, training, + decoration)
Tuesday, December 8 – 8:30 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. (decorating)
Wednesday, December 9- 8:30 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. (decorating, delivery)
Thursday, December 10- 8:30 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. (decorating, delivery, clean   up)
Please come to the side door on Berkeley Street. We’ll post a sign.  Dried materials and fresh greens can be delivered to the Church no earlier than Monday, December 7. Please have all decorations “cleaned down” – branches cut down, dead leaves removed – so we can contain the mess we inevitably make. Delicate materials can be laid flat in sweater boxes or gently stacked in cardboard containers. We are going to need as many dried items, especially flowers, as we can collect.
Bring clippers and scissors if you have them, labeled with masking tape for ease of identification. Aprons are also a good idea. Dress comfortably! We need everyone’s help, whether you decorate, deliver, organize, make telephone calls confirming delivery, or sweep. Contact Francine Crawford at 617-859-8865 (francine.crawford@verizon.net) or Margaret Pokorny at 617-536-2920 (MPok384@verizon.net) if you have specific questions. Otherwise, we’ll see you on Monday. If you still plan to order wreaths, send the order forms along as soon as you can.  Please try to come for as many hours as possible, on as many days as you can spare – we need you, and you’ll have a great time! Thank you. If you can take a delivery shift, and have not already been contacted, email Elisabeth Lay at elisabethlay@comcast.net, or call her at 617-536-6633.
