St. James' Parish Spring Dinner Invitation!

You are cordially invited to volunteer your time and talents or make a donation to the St. James' Parish Spring Dinner. We are looking forward to sharing a delicious meal, our historic church grounds, specialty shops and children's activities with our parish members and neighbors. This has always proven to be a wonderful day of fellowship, and is a large fundraiser for our Parish. Please let us know if you can volunteer for one of the many duties required to prepare during the week prior to the dinner, and especially the times you will be available to assist on the day of the dinner. As usual, we need many donations: home-baked pies to sell as desserts during the meal; home made treats for our baked goods table; and special crafts, plants and flowers, jewelry and white elephant items for our boutiques. If you have a favorite volunteer position, please send an email to Stjamesdinner@aol.com, and we will be sure your job is saved for you. Also, please indicate the specific times you will be able to assist in your response. We ask that everyone arrive 15 minutes prior to their shift for instructions and to join us in our opening prayer. All volunteers are invited to dress in a colonial period costume. You may find costume ideas at www.buycostumes.com, or by searching for colonial mop cap or apron. This does not have to be elaborate – a long skirt, apron and mop cap will work. Advance tickets are available for $18. The cost for the dinner at the door will be $20, children under 10 - $10. Under 2 are free. To purchase advance tickets just email Stjamesdinner@aol.com. Advance tickets are not available at the parish office. Please remember to encourage your family, friends and neighbors to join us for this wonderful event!
