Well, I just tried to post the email blast that we sent out last evening. It did not work well, so, I will now try to fpiece it in (I hope.). Oh, yes, if any of you like the social networking and blogging and you would like to be involved with the Puppetry Arts Center - call me. Jan 561-967-3231.

The Puppetry Arts Center of the Palm Beaches
The new facility is in Delray Beach
at Old School Square/Pineapple Grove.

A 501(c)(3) tax deductible nonprofit corporation

The Center has a Wonderful New Facility
but New Expenses too!

OK! It's time to get out the checkbook
and help the puppets get their new home built.
The puppets are waiting in their cramped dark boxes in storage.
The puppets are really very social. It is difficult for them
to know that there are lots and lots of kids (and grown-ups)
that are waiting for the new theater to be finished.

Please consider a generous gift
to the Puppetry Arts Center of the Palm Beaches.

This is the last chance to get a tax deduction for this year.
Construction for the new Center is under way but

Your help is needed

to finish the build-out properly and cover the opening expenses!
Make a difference!

If you are interested in helping with any of the above
give Bill a call at 561-312-3232
to let him know of your availability and your contact information.

Then there is that other thing that is still needed
- capital, money, bucks, funds, cash, dough, bread, greenbacks,
loot, lucre, resources, revenue - well, you get the idea.

Give a gift to the community.
This is a great time of year to give a tax deductible gift
to a nonprofit that is serving the community.
The building is going on,
so are the expenses.
Any amount is helpful. $20's add up to hundreds.

The Work is Progressing!
See the photo!


Well, I finally got to see the progress of the build-out. There is no more sand floor - its concrete now, and it will be polished. The bathrooms are framed in (that's exciting). Lots of stuff going on and some kinks to work out but we are still looking forward to opening in January 2011.

Sunshine (the yellow lion) is getting restless to get out of his box and see the kids. All of the puppets are getting restless, too. Actually, I am too.
