Thank You From The American Red Cross

Dear Broadlands Association, Inc.

The American Red Cross, the patients we serve, and I personally would like to thank you for   sponsoring the Friday, August 30 blood drive.

Through the dedication of Broadlands Home Owner’s Association, we were able to collect 17   productive pints of blood with 18 individuals presenting to donate!  Those blood donations have the potential to save 51 hospital patients who rely on our combined efforts for life-saving blood.  It is only through the support of groups like yours that we are able to continue this life-saving endeavor.

Again, thank you for your support of the Red Cross blood program.  Please send my thanks to everyone who participated in the drive and let them know that they are silent hometown heroes.  I look forward to working with you in the future!

Best Wishes,

Judy Kordella

DRD Field Representative

Flicks in the Sticks – CANCELLED for Aug 3

CANCELLED Unfortunately, today’s rain has turned the Nature Center lawn quite soggy and the additional chance of rain warrants cancellation of tonight’s show. We’re disappointed that we will have to cancel our presentation of Brave. Please come out on August 17 for our next movie, The Avengers.

Brave - Movie PosterIt’s our 9th season and Flicks is presenting another night of family entertainment. Come join us for the showing of Brave at approximately 8:30PM on the Nature Center lawn. Bring a picnic dinner – or pick up something from one of the great local restaurants – and stake out your spot on the lawn. Coolers, lawn chairs, and picnic blankets are welcome. Free popcorn and drinks are provided. This is a popular event, so come early for a good seat!

One lucky person will take home the DVD of tonight’s movie in a random drawing from all attendees. Tickets for the drawing are distributed before the movie starts. Drawing will be held immediately after the movie and winner must be present.

Here’s a short synopsis of tonight’s movie:

Determined to make her own path in life, Princess Merida defies a custom that brings chaos to her kingdom. Granted one wish, Merida must rely on her bravery and her archery skills to undo a beastly curse. PG, 93 mins. [Parental Guidance]

Flicks in the Sticks is a FREE event for Broadlands residents and their guests ONLY.

Flicks in the Sticks is brought to you by the HOA Technology Committee.
