Update

First, for the last few months I have had little or no time to blog. I apologize. Second, LIGHTHOUSE 2911 has been very busy promoting the Be the Change Program in Jr High and High Schools. This year we have helped over 80 students to be the change at their schools. Our PALS classes are going great. And we just have begun to build the LIGHTHOUSE 2911 Equine Center in Edna. You might say we have been pretty busy. A sweet lady named Beckey Gooden has caught the vision and is helping us put together what we hope to be an annual thing called Coastal Band Bash featuring the extremely tallented bands in the area. Because we are a family oriented organization, we are planning this Coastal Band Bash with the whole family in mind. There will also be food booths and activities for the kids. If you ask me what bands are playing, I couldn't tell you. There are several and we are excited about the opportunity to have family entertainment at the Calhoun County Fairgrounds on Saturday, April 28th from Noon til 10:00 pm.
Now, for some more news. An anonomous individual has agreed to match donations made before April 28th to LIGHTHOUSE 2911 up to $10,000. So if you would give $1.00 or more for each of your family members, he will match it. Or if you donated $360 to sponsor a youth for a year, he will match that. Or if you donate to the Equine Center, he will match that. So it's a win,win situation for LIGHTHOUSE 2911 and you.
I just thought of something. If you wanted to make your donation to LIGHTHOUSE 2911 because you are coming to the Coastal Band Bash you could go on line and make your donation at www.lighthouse2911.org and this would be matched also. So it's a win, win, win, win for everyone. I look forward to visiting with you and enjoying some great music and entertainment.
