New Fundraising Opportunity
Check out the
Team USA Wristbands. The club will be placing an order for these
wristbands by September 4th. If you are interested in
participating in this fundraiser as one of your club commitments, please
contact Christine Trimpe.
Christine needs to know
how many you will commit to selling (minimum 10). The bracelets are
available in child and adult sizes. The metal band on the wristbands
advertises the 2010 Vancouver Olympics on one side and the US Figure
Skating Team on the other side.
Please let Christine know
the quantity of child and adult sizes you wish to sell. For example,
Kaitlin is going to sell 5 child and 5 adult.
When the wristbands come
in, BRBFSC will collect from you $6 for each wristband. This is the
suggested retail price. As you sell the wristbands, you keep the money to
recoup your $6. The club will make $2.55 for each wristband sold.
Dream
Cruise Fundraiser Thanks to all the club families
that participated in the Dream Cruise fundraising event. The club manned
one of the city booths on Woodward and sold the official Dream Cruise
merchandise. This was a fun, easy way to put in some volunteer hours.
Keep it in mind for next year!
Thanks to Janice
Steingold, Lynn Wasinski, Michelle Henning, Deb Colling, Lisa and Morgan
Anderson, Charlene Haines, and Steven and Nina Dickerman for melting along
with me and putting in your time. I’d personally like to thank Charlene
Haines for bringing her paper towel to the booth. You just never know
when you are going to drop sandwich dressing all down the front of your
shirt or when a dog is going to drool all over your black shorts.
I don’t have an exact
figure of our proceeds yet, but will let everyone know in future board
business!
Car
Wash Thanks to all the kids and parents
who washed cars - we earned $265 for BRBFSC!! Check out the sidebar
on the website for photos! Thanks to Deb Colling for sending the
photos!
Congratulations
to Emily Griswold on passing her Senior Moves this summer! It takes
a lot of time and hard work to complete all 8 moves tests! We are
all proud of you! Congrats to Coach Lisa Bradley as well, for
coaching Emily all the way from Pre-Preliminary through Senior Moves!
Test Sessions Three area clubs, Berkley, Birmingham and North Suburban in Royal Oak,
rotate test session throughout the season, and offer skaters from all
three clubs "in-club" testing fees.

kate@kaleidoscopeconcepts.com if you are
able to help! The approximate hours are 8am-4pm.
08-09 Season Tribute Video
Once again, Meghan Steingold has created a great video tribute to the
members of BRBFSC for the 2008-2009 Season. This is one of the
videos that was shown at the BRBFSC banquet.
A second video tribute to our nine graduating seniors. I believe
that this was created by Morgan Anderson:
Club Warm-Ups and
Sweatshirts!
New to the BRBFSC? Has your skater grown? See Deb Colling to
order new Club Wear for this season!
Order Blades for the
Test Display
If your skater has recently begun testing, and you would like to add them
to the blade case, complete the order form and leave it with the Ice
Monitor.
Virtual Test
Display
We've taken the Blade Display at the Arena, and placed it online!
If you would like to order blades for the actual display at the
arena, please contact Trudy Calder for more information (see
information above).

online!
We Prefer CHECKS!
For drop in cards, or dropping in on sessions, BRBFSC prefers checks!
Checks are more secure, and make it easier for us to reconcile payments.
If you have no other form of payment, we will take cash, accompanied by a
gentle reminder that we prefer checks!
Cookbooks are still
available! With over 200 recipes, the cookbook
"Lutz Get Cooking with the Berkley Royal Blades" makes a great gift!
Get your copies now for $10 each! You can pick up cookbooks
from Lisa Anderson, Sandy Engman, Charlene Haines or Kate Griswold
at the rink - between the four of them, there should be cookbooks
available at the rink every night we skate. We ask that you
please pay for the cookbooks as you take them to assist our
recordkeeping!
