We just wanted to send out a quick thank you to all the organizations who hosted competitions this season. It was a great year filled with a lot of fun and excitement. Each location was well organized and proved to be very welcoming. Thank you to all our hosts.

Thank you to Richie Rigolini and his staff for another successful year. They all work very hard and it shows. Thank you! We appreciate all you do.

This blog site will become inactive after this post and a new All Saints Blog site will be created in the near future. Blogger has a limited allowed bandwidth and we are seriously close to being maxed out. As soon as the new site is created we will leave a link here for you to follow.

Here's hoping you all have a fantastic summer!

Thank You Harvard Pilgrim!

The All Saints Color Guard was once again chosen as a Harvard Pilgrim Community Spirit 911 Mini Grant recipient for 2012. This grant gave us the opportunity to purchase some of the beautiful competition silks (flags) for the 2013 competition season. We send many thanks and our heart-felt appreciation to Harvard Pilgrim!!

About the Community Spirit 9/11 Mini-Grants Program:
Harvard Pilgrim Health Care created it to commemorate the first anniversary of September 11, 2001
through a special contribution to its Foundation. The Foundation administers this special fund and
distributes the Mini-Grants to non-profit organizations that Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Health
Plans Inc. and Dell Perot employees nominate. Since 2002, hundreds of Harvard Pilgrim, Health Plans Inc. and Dell Perot employees have had their Mini-Grants approved -- benefiting schools, social service, and cultural and other community-based organizations where our employees live and work. Just last year, we distributed more than $370,000 in Mini-Grants throughout Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

The All Saints Color Guard is once again honored to receive this grant and sends many thanks of appreciation to Harvard Pilgrim for choosing us and to Mr. Sullivan for nominating our organization.

2012 Car Wash Fundraiser Sponsored by Sullivan Tire

The kids had a great time at the car wash fundraiser on Saturday, July 14th at Sullivan Tire and Auto on Rt. 53 in Norwell (Queen Anne's Corner). We can't thank Sullivan Tire and Auto enough for sponsoring this fundraiser and picking up the tab for all costs, including advertising. They also set up this fabulous venue, provided every car wash customer with a thank you packet that included a tire gauge, discount coupon and awesome car sleeve for registrations and other paperwork. It was a most successful day!!

We'd like to thank everyone at Sullivan Tire and Auto, the exceptional managers, supportive staff, friendly technicians, the Sullivan Tire Pup and Scott Raymond for making this possible. We'd also like to send a shout out to Kim Seitz who, along with Scott Raymond, organized this event and of course we couldn't do it without all the parents, families, friends, volunteers, supporters and all the ASCG members who made this fundraiser a complete success! Thank you everyone!

The Gray brothers brought a hotrod and dragracing car to the event ... and no, the two in the photo are NOT the Gray brothers, they are two of our beautiful coaches.
