Hello Friends,
First, an urgent appeal from our neighbors in Martin’s Creek – their meeting is tomorrow night!
Please help us get the word out about our community center possibly closing!
Unless we are able to gather enough committed volunteers and a few people willing to be a board member, the center will revert back to the county and be closed.
This is one of the few centers that are still open to people looking for venues to have events, community and civic meetings, not to mention the well attended Gospel Singing, all of which will cease to be available to us.
If you will kindly print and post the attached flyer and/or share this information with your staff, students or congregations, it will be much appreciated.
The attendance at the upcoming meeting will determine the desires of the community as to whether or not the center will be available in the future for its intended purpose.
Tuesday, Feb 28th – 6pm
Martin’s Creek Community Center
4605 Martin’s Creek Rd – Murphy, NC
MCCC Flyer 15 FEB 2023 version A – This is the link to their flyer – help them if you can!
Next – our next fundraiser event is a Poor Man’s Diner – we will be serving beans and cornbread, potatoes, coleslaw, dessert and a drink all for $5.00! You can eat with us between 11am-2pm at the Brasstown Community Center or drop by for a takeout plate. See the attached flyer for this event as well – tell your friends and family and let’s get together!
Finally, we are lining up bands for the 2023 – Summer Concert Series starting in May through August. We have one opening for a group on Jul 29th – if you know someone good, let us know! Call 828-361-3040. We hope you will mark your calendars and make plans to join us for good music, good friends, and good food! Right now, the line up looks like this:
May 13 The Collins Family
May 27 Jimmy Wilson Band
June 10 Barker Brothers Band
June 24 Vic Blackwell Band

Thank you again for your support for the Brasstown Community Center – if you can help Martin’s Creek, please do so and let’s all come to the Poor Man’s Dinner on Sunday March 5th!
Your Brasstown Bell Crier,
Sarah
