"Ode to G"
A Tribute to the Memories of Colin Grunert 1957-2009
Please join us for a BBQ, campfire and sharing of stories in honor and memory of Colin’s life.
When : Friday, August 20, 2010, 6:30 p.m. (you can come at 4:30 to hear the final band camp concert if you wish)
Where : Kenosee Lake Band Camp at the Clearview Church Camp
(go through the Kenosee Lake Park, keep travelling West until you see a sign that says “Church Camps” to the left. We are the 2nd camp in. If you continue around the curve without turning, you will cross over a Texas gate and you will know you have gone too far)..
Bring along a lawn chair and some fond memories to share with everyone. Please pass this invite to anyone and everyone who knew Colin.
If you wish to stay over night, some rooms have been reserved at the Kenosee Inn or bring along a sleeping bag and pillow and we will bunk you down at the camp :)
Please RSVP to gailarleneshirley@hotmail.com or call me at 306-421-0326 so that I have an idea of how much food to prepare for.
See you there!
