From tom at thesteinthals.com Fri Jan 4 08:27:36 2008 From: tom at thesteinthals.com (Tom Steinthal) Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2008 08:27:36 -0500 Subject: RFC - Updates for a New Year Message-ID: Hey Resurrection Fathers. Happy New Years, and welcome back home to those away. We have 4 things to update you on, and need some help... 1. The Beefsteak Dinner is Feb 1st. That is not that far away. If you want to help organize, please drop me a note. We'll start the detailed work on this party next week. 2. Next week there is an event being put on by the PTO - Mary Ronan is coming to talk about "How to talk to our children about difficult topics" on Thursday, Jan 10th @ 7pm. We need you to: - Attend - it is in the Middle School Cafeteria - there are flyers going around about this. Our wives know about it... - Donate drinks for the night - we committed the RFC to donate soft drinks, beer, and wine for the group. (NOTE: any left-overs will be kept and used the night of the beefsteak) 3. Fathers of 3rd - 6th grade girls, save March 7th for the 1st Annual RFC Father's Daughter Dance. The best part of this one, is some of our wives are doing all of the organization for us. We are running this one for the fun of it, and it will not be a fund raiser. Any fees we charge will be to cover costs only. 4. Thanks for our Mike & Mike (not Greenberg & Golic, but Caponiti & Curran) with an assist from Phil Semprevivo in helping make progress toward a new scoreboard and new side baskets in the middle school gym. It has been slow going, but we are seeing progress. Thanks, Tom Tom Steinthal tom at thesteinthals.com (914) 659-2947 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

What a better way to get geared up for the big game on Sunday but go to a Kickoff Party Friday night. For those of you that are long time attendees of the Beefsteak dinner, you'll know we have never had a theme for the event. But, no team in NFL history has 10 straight road wins. Just to keep you apprised, with just under two weeks before the event, our we have pre-sold more tickets than last year. Make sure to get your reservations in. And, if you are going to Arizona, arrange your flight for Saturday morning. Tom From tom at thesteinthals.com Mon Jan 28 07:40:55 2008 From: tom at thesteinthals.com (Tom Steinthal) Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2008 07:40:55 -0500 Subject: RFC - Beefsteak this Friday. HELP! & Giants are in the raffle Message-ID: <47BBDA68-C271-4DCA-B56B-0128F4D7162D@thesteinthals.com> Gents - we are going great on reservations for the Beefsteak, but we still have room for a few more. DON'T MISS OUT. We need your reservations by Wednesday. Don't assume this e-mail has reached your buddies. This list still only gets to about 1/2 of the fathers at the school. Also, there is no reason you can't bring friends who are not Resurrection school fathers! WE NEED YOUR HELP... CYO Basketball starts at 10am after our event. We need 10 guys to clean-up starting at 7:30am. PM Amusements is coming then to get their pool tables, etc..., and once they are taken out, we need to roll-up the mats. We need your help, otherwise the CYO games will be delayed. We also need some more help working the front-door at 6:30 and again at 7:30. Thanks to our friends in the Giants front-office, the raffle will include some mighty nice Giants gear. While these friends of ours will be in AZ getting ready for the game (and we will have a toast to them and the G-men), they are with us in spirit, and we thank them for the donation!!! Go Giants! The main prize of the raffle is the same as last year, a 50 inch HDTV flat screen. To recap, some details on the event... - It is from 6:30 to whenever in the Middle School Gym - You can pay at the door. It is $80 for a ticket, and $700 for a table for 8 with a bottle of wine. - If you reserve a table, please send me a list of who is at your table - I have this for only 1/2 the tables already reserved. - We are having beer, wine, steak, etc.... - We are having a 50 / 50 raffle and a prize raffle (as mentioned above) - We are having the first and hopefully not last free-throw shooting contest This is the final push, and if we get the answered needed from this e- mail, there will only be one more e-mail - a reminded Friday morning...

Message-ID: <776863F0-3257-4F36-BBE7-50FD6B5BB43A@thesteinthals.com> Gents - last chance to register for the beefsteak. We are setting the number of people for the steak and wine tonight. We have a great turnout as of now. We have 11 tables sold, and a slew of individual tickets (and smaller groups). The theme is a Giants pre-victory celebration. The one problem we have, and it is a big one, we need guys to come by at 7:30 Saturday morning to help get the gym ready for CYO. We do these events to support sports at the school (and while you are at the gym, check out the new scoreboard that we helped fund). If we can't get the gym cleaned up by 9:30, the CYO basketball games will be directly impacted. We need more helpers for Saturday morning. As of this moment, we don't have enough committed people to do the task of getting the gym back in shape. If you cannot attend (or want to pre-buy raffle tickets to save time at the door), and want to participate in the raffle, let me know how many tickets you want and for which raffle. Then you can send a check made out to the Resurrection Foundation to cover the cost of your tickets to me at 17 Harbor Dr, PC, NY, 10573. Already a couple of guys who are going to be out of town for Friday have done this. Why not put your name in for a 50" flat screen TV, Giants prizes from the front-office, and other stuff? Why not get in on the 50/50 raffle? Tickets are $20. > To recap, some details on the event... > - It is from 6:30 to whenever in the Middle School Gym > - You can pay at the door.
