Here’s the info from the last bulk-email:
HELLO!
XZONE is the junior high youth group for Hillside UMC.
These are the top-ten notes for late-JUNE 2011; please share with others:
(#1) this Sunday, June 26, XZONE will be helping set-up nighttime VBS from 1:00-3:00pm in the Rock. I’ll have snacks & such. This is a great way to serve the church. We’ll need 15-20 people.
(#2) want more service opportunities? Every Tuesday (10-11am), and Wednesday (6-7pm) our church makes bag-lunches for local kids in need.
(#3) this Sunday (June 26) is also a KHO meeting after the 11am service in room 2019. We’ll discuss packing-lists & pray for our mission trip on July 17.
(#4) want other prayer requests? Don’t forget that Sr.High (TNT ministry) is at Snowbird summer camp this week, and Hillside has a missions team in Honduras.
(#5) because TNT is gone, there is no 9th grade “Upper Room” tonight.
It is usually Tuesdays, 6-8 pm in the ROCK (upstairs youth suite).
Contact Steve Brooks with questions about these events: SBrooks@hillsideumc.org
(#6) Sunday School is every Sunday 9:30-10:30 EXCEPT on July 3rd.
HUMC has a church service at the YMCA lake that day.
Jr.High will have a great guest S.S. teacher on July 10 & 17.
(#7) We have a website: www.hillsideyouth.com with calendars & photos.
The new calendars & summer photos (like VBS, and BAND CAMP are now online).
If something is wrong, or you need more details, just LMK.
(#8) let me describe TWITTER one more time!
It’s how I send text message reminders to you (or your parents).
I can not force you to sign-up … you do it yourself.
Text the words “follow 7n8” to the number 40404.
If you don’t like my texts, just text “leave 7n8” to the number 40404.
It’s that easy … try it out, and simply “un-friend” me if you don’t like the messages.
This is how I will communicate last-minute changes & reminders.
Otherwise you might miss “MALL HUNT” (our annual hide-&-seek game in the mall).
(#9) Oh yeah … MALL HUNT.
It’s at the end of the summer – July 31.
5:00 pm at Town Center Mall (exit 1).
(#10) Want more to do?
There are free outdoor movies each Friday in July (at the Hillside parking lot).
7/08/11 – - 101 Dalmatians

(bonus round) – you made it this far, so here’s some laffy taffy jokes:
>> Why is it so hard to play poker in the jungle?….
Because there are so many cheetahs!!
>> What is the best time to see the dentist?
Two thirty! (tooth hurty; get it?).
>> why don’t seagulls fly over the bay?
Because then they’d be called bay-gulls!
