Our church loves to get together as a community, and there are many all-church Special Events that bring us together. We laugh, play and work together, and often raise much-needed funds at these special gatherings. Some of them take many people working together, and some take just a few. All are worth attending for the entire family!

A2U2 Auction. This bi-annual event is held
THIS spring, Friday, May 4, 2012. It's our biggest fundraiser and provides a huge amount of fun for all who work on it. Items auctioned are services, vacations, food, handcrafts and art and much more. Many people of the church help with this project by donating goods and services, preparing and serving food for the evening, working on the auction tables and in many other ways.
Holiday Fair. This event is an important annual fundraiser which combines work and fun. A large number of people in our church participate every year, and every one of them is needed! We usually need leadership beginning in early. The Holiday Fair always happens the first Saturday of December, but planning begins much sooner!
Ferry Beach Retreat. This annual intergenerational event will be April 10, 11, and 12, 2012 at Ferry Beach, a Unitarian Universalist conference center in Saco, Maine. The weekend combines food, games, workshops, conversation, quiet time and walks on the beautiful beach. This year, we had over 150 people in attendance! Planning begins early in the year.
Circle Suppers. Our next date is Saturday, May 19, 2012! Periodically on the same Saturday night we gather in small groups at various homes of church members and friends for a potluck supper and for companionship, sharing, getting-to-know-each-other better and building community.
