February 2010 Message

Posted January 28, 2010
Dear Members,
I can’t believe it is already February. Spring is just around the corner and lots of exciting things will be happening in the months to come. Our first big event of the year is “Celebrate Sugarcreek” on April 24 at Sweet Basil. Please be sure to submit your nominations for the awards by Feb. 20. This is a great opportunity to recognize those who do so much for our community. Tickets are available from any officer, marketing committee member or several locations around town.

The weekend of May 7-8 is looking to bring a lot of people into town. This is the time for the Community Garage Sales. Bargains can be found all over town. Then, on Saturday, May 8, bring the family to the pavilion area for the Vintage Garden Tractor Show. I’m sure there will be something for everyone.

Plans are being finalized for our biggest event, the Fabulous 50’s Fling, the weekend of June11-12. This year we are celebrating 20 years. We always need extra volunteers for this event, so clear your calendar now and make plans to join us. For more information you can log on to the newly renovated Web site at www.fab50sfling.com.

We will be having two special guests join us in February for our weekly meetings at Dutch Valley. Jeremy Kauffman from Walnut Hills will be doing a presentation about CROFT Values on Feb. 10 and Milo Miller will be with us on Feb. 24 to give us information about the Sugarcreek Rotary. Please mark your calendars and show your support at these meetings.

If you would like to get more involved in the going ons of the SBA, we have a great opportunity for you. We are looking to fill the position of Vice-president. If you are interested or know someone who would be great for the position, please contact myself, Bev Keller, Keith Rathbun, or Doug Frutschy .

The extra drawings we are doing after meeting are going very well. I still have some dates open. If you would like to donate something for these drawings, please let me know. I hope to see you at a meeting soon.

Sincerely,

Cheryll Shireman
Sugarcreek Business Association President 2010
