Connect-Up Hiking Leader needed

Greetings UUFC Walkers, Amblers, Plodders, and Hikers: Did you know that UUFC has a Connect-Up group for you? There is a little problem, though. It now lacks an organizer/leader. Jim Wagner started the most recent incarnation of this group at the start of the COVID epidemic and the varying group visited many area locations from Mary’s Peak to Mac Forest to Cascade Foothills. Jim is no longer able to lead hikes. Priscilla Galasso has done this nicely for a while but is also moving on. Jim is willing to help find and assist someone who can lead hikes. Organizing is just a matter of picking a location that fits likely weather and participants; Jim can particularly help with this. Your primary responsibility would then be a few hours, typically on the last Saturday of each month, enjoying both the personal connections and the marvelous places that are accessible by trail or path. If you, or several of you, can fill the role of hike leader and/or organizer, please contact Jim Wagner.

Connect Up: Rich hosting Thanksgiving Dinner/Potluck, 11/27

Thanksgiving will be here in just a few days: why not celebrate it with eighty or more people at UUFC?   Members, friends, family, and out-of-town guests are welcome.  Instead of staying home and doing all the work and cooking, come here and do just a little work (if you are willing and able), a little cooking, and with little expense.  The Fellowship provides turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, beverages, and the Social Hour appetizers.  Also a five pound tofu turkey, vegan and GF.  Each family unit (of 1 or more humans) brings a potluck dish (salad, bread, dessert, veggie side dish, vegetarian/vegan main dish, cranberries, potatoes/yams, stuffing, etc.) or cooks one of the 4 turkeys (cost reimbursed).  The suggested donation is $5.00/person to cover costs, but no one is turned away for lack of funds.  Any surplus money will go to the Minister’s Discretionary Fund, or the South Corvallis Food Bank.

We need to know how many tables and chairs to set up for dinner, so sign up after Sunday service (starting at 10 AM) on 11/23, or call/email Rich, or sign up on Breeze, by Wednesday night, November 26, and also tell him what food you will probably bring, and if you are able to volunteer for a job.

Schedule:
10:30 a.m.  Set up at UUFC.
4:30 p.m.  Social hour at UUFC.
5:30 p.m.  Turkey dinner with vegetarian/vegan alternatives.  $5.00 suggested.  RSVP.
7:30 p.m.  Conversation, table games, and clean up.  Please stay and mellow out, visit, or bring a favorite board game.   Is anyone interested in doing charades?

HELP! As of newsletter deadline, I still need people to sign up for clean up, and putting away the tables and chairs, and to help with the social hour.  Also, many people signed up to come but gave no indication of what they might be bringing to the potluck.  At the moment we have only 4 desserts, and two vegetable side dishes.
