online bidding opening soon

Starting on Sunday, April 1 you can browse the items up for bid in this years Bethlehem Youth Silent Auction: Masquerade Ball.  We have received some really great donations this year and new surprises are coming in daily.  Check back soon to learn about the generous companies and individuals that have donated to this year's event.

been a while

Wow, how long has it been since this blog has been updated?!  Did we really take the entire year of 2011 off?!  OK, so the reality has set in that a blog is not the best way to communicate with youth.  Exhibit A: free iPod gift cards were going to be given to the first person that could name the children in a very active family in our church, and no one responded!  That was like asking "how many ears do you have?" 

Anyway, we're not doing away with the blog!  It is going to play a very important role in our fundraising efforts this year.  Right here on the BYG Blog, the items for our 3rd Annual Silent Auction & Dinner will be posted and open for early bidding.  Check back soon for more information about the auction.

Weekend...

I don't know about you guys but I am so excited that it is the weekend.  This week has been a weird one for me, and I am ready to relax, watch some football, and eat some good food.  I guess this could be considered a practice for Thanksgiving.  (well minus most of that food).  Anyways.  I hope that everyone is coming up with creative ideas for the new contest. 

A reminder that if you are planning on going on the summer trips, talk to your parents because the first deadline is coming up soon.  (I believe that free t-shirts are included if you sign up now).  I hope that you guys will consider going.  It looks like a great time.

Also Sunday night youth at the youth house.  Normal time. 

Have a great weekend.  It should be beautiful weather!

New Contest - 12 days of Christmas

And now for the moment you have been waiting on...the rules for the newest contest.

There is a list of 12 tasks/items that your immediate family (those living in the house with you) need to capture with a camera.  This is based on your interpretation of the list and you may be as creative as you wish.

Rules
1. Get the family together and take pictures proving that you accomplished the task.  Each family member should be in each picture.
2. Once you have completed the list e mail them to thebygblog@hotmail.com
3. Complete the list by 12-15-10!
4. There will be multiple winners so get those pictures in.

The List
1. With a Christmas inflatable
2. Drinking hot chocolate on a couch
3. Bundled up in winter gear
4. On or with a tractor
5. Around Andy and Alison's car
6. With the BYG Youth House sign
7. With a llama or camel
8. With Santa
9. At your Thanksgiving Dinner
10. With a Nativity Scene
11. With an animal dressed for the holidays
12. With a Christmas Tree
I will post this on the side bar tomorrow so that you can keep going back to the list.

Catch up time...

I will try to be brief in my update.  Please forgive me for not posting recently.

1.  I have heard reports that the lock in was a great time.  The youth house was busting with activity and some great tournaments were played.  Once the youth moved to the church more games were played and a great time was had.

2.  I have updated the trivia game.  Since I have been on the road last week I missed a Tuesday, so everyone that was registered got 6 points for my mistake. 

3.  The "love your neighbor contest" ended with no winner.  No parent reported that a youth had done a good deed which implies that no youth read the rules to the contest.  A new contest will be posted tomorrow with the rules and end date of the contest.  It should be really fun for the entire family. 

4.  The packing party for Operation Christmas Child was great.  A lot of boxes were packed.  I believe a little over 100 boxes are ready to be sent to the processing center.

5.  There will be youth on Sunday the 14th.

6. Thanksgiving is right around the corner.  What are some things that you are thankful for and what are your plans for the holiday?

I will have more to post later once I am able to catch up with Andy and get some details of up coming events.  If you have an announcement please email me at thebygblog@hotmail.com and I will be happy to post for you.

lock-in

The lock-in is fast approaching!  I hope that you guys have a great time tonight and don't drive the adults crazy. 

Don't forget today is Maggie Lee for Good Day.  Don't forget to do something nice for someone (even if it is just holding the door for someone).  

Have a happy and safe Halloween!

Reminder

Last year the youth discussed Maggie Lee for Good day in honor for Maggie Lee Henson.  Check out the website below and plan to do one kind act on Friday the 29th.  Alison says that the kind act can be going to bed early at the lock in if you would like.

Quick Update

I have updated the trivia question on the side.  Don't forget to e mail me the answer and if you haven't already signed up do so.  It isn't too late to sign up.  Prize for the winners will be given at the end of year party. 

I have talked to Andy and he said that so far there is no winner for the latest contest.  You still have time!  A new contest will be posted at the beginning of November.  Be ready for some adventure!

It isn't too late to sign up for the lock in. 

What is your favorite haunted house memory?  Leave a comment for all to read.  I am not ashamed to admit that I hated haunted houses and had to be carried out of one when I was a little kid, I crawled under the wall of one and escaped back to the beginning where one of my parents was waiting.

E mail me pictures of your favorite costumes (or parents your kids most embarrassing pics from Halloween).
