Roberts Point Park For information about Relay For Life, events or fundraisers, call event chair Robyn McKinney at (361) 945-5907. All proceeds benefit Relay For Life. • Live Wires team is selling tickets for a drawing to win a two-night stay at Aransas Harbors Condos ($450 value); a Gift Certificate for $100 to Tarpon Inn; a Gift Certificate for $100 to Spin Drift Surfboards (to be applied toward a custom board); and a “French Kiss” Sport Kite donated by Fly It Port A Kite Shop ($100 value). Tickets are $1 and prizes will be awarded at the event. They also are selling Love From Home boxes: Send a box of goodies to your child/family member at college or elsewhere. Salty, Sweet or healthy snacks will be boxed with a personal note and shipped. Large box is $25 and medium is $20. Boxes also may be picked up for $12/$10. Contact Suanne Pyle at (361) 563-6059 or Carrol Simanek at (361) 510-6820. • CCMS team is selling raffle tickets for a king-size handmade quilt to be awarded at the event. Tickets are $5 each or six for $25. Contact any team member for tickets. The “potty patrol” will deliver a pink and purple “traveling potty” to locations around town. $10 allows you to have the potty placed in someone’s yard. $10 also will allow you to have that potty removed. For an additional $5, the resident may choose to have the potty placed in another yard. You may purchase “Potty Insurance” to prevent delivery to your yard. A limited policy runs $20 (Potty can’t be placed in your yard unless someone pays $100 or more). An unlimited policy runs $100 and completely prevents the potty from being placed in your yard. Call any CCMS team member, or Sue Williams at (361) 443-0171, to request a form for delivery or stop by Alister Square Inn, 122 S. Alister St. Upon delivery, the recipient will be asked to sign a form allowing the potty to be placed. The potty will not be left in any one location for more than 48 hours. • Kernels for a Cure team is taking guesses at the number of kernels in a jug for a chance to win a halfday sailing adventure aboard the Stray Cat.
