Sally-utations all. See what we did there? We made a funny.
N&N here again, after a long hiatus (it was our turn to save the baby seals this week). We bring sad tidings that our final week on the Task Force is upon us. So if you are desperate to see our smiling faces before we are shipped off by the Task Force Protection Program, your time is limited.
We got so excited about the Butt Stop (you should see the video clips) that we completely forgot... rather, we weren't sure if the public could handle both of these news items in one blog...
Anyways, Sunday brought the conclusion of the international soccer tournament hosted by Burlington. It was intense, and the players were in tents as they waited to go on the field. What a linguistically pleasing coincidence. It was great to have all those international visitors, and I'm sure they liked Burlington just as much as we do.
Also in the news this week (other than the Michael Jackson Memorial-which by the way, the Task Force got a front row seat view of... on our big screen TV) was the highly anticipated Taste of Burlington Launch. The blood, sweat, tears, and emails sacrificed by Nicole and Linda C resulted in a high profile media and gastronomical smorgasbord. The leftovers were generously donated to the Task Force. Normally we don't need sustenance, but we allowed ourselves this small indulgence in order to be able to tell you, honestly and truly, that the food in "Taste" is most definitely worth checking out. [Insert shameless plug here - Taste of Burlington runs July 20-Aug 3, and involves prix-fixe lunch and dinner menus from 20 different Burlington restaurants. Go to the Taste of Burlington website for more info! Make sure to catch us on CH Morning News next Thursday where one of the talented chefs from SB Prime will be cooking up something tasty*! *Tastiness guaranteed. End of shameless plug. Thanks for listening.]
Also also ICE CREAM AND KITES! It's so exciting! So exciting you didn't even see me throw that in at the end of the sentence there. You okay? Heart rate down now? Alrighty then, let's continue. Ice cream and kites, what goes together better? They are the Posh and Becks, Han and Chewie, and Smithers and Mr. Burns of... well... everything. And they are conveniently combined in this Sunday's aptly named Kite and Ice Cream Festival. We won't be there in our banananananananana shirts or matching tent, but we'll be there, because with the Task Force in place, you're never really alone (but not in a creepy way). Just like with Spiderman, everybody gets one. We love you Posh and Becks!
Do you like movies? Do you like parks and other public venues? Then you should check out Peter's Picks and Movies Under the Stars, two programs currently offering free movies all around the Burlington Area. Give us a visit, check out our website, call us, beep us (if you want to reach us), fax us, email us, telepathically send us your thoughts, or shine the Task Force symbol, and we'll give you details. So if you have nothing to do next Thursday night, and you're all bummed out about it, don't blame us. You could have reached us all of those ways (8 of them - we counted), and you could be at a free movie.
In brochure news, we received over 9000 brochures. Not really, but it was still a lot. We were very excited that Oakville brochures have arrived! And more than 4 this time! One whole box! Some of our brochures go so quickly that we're going to bake some Hotcakes and then say that they go like Muskoka brochures.
Alright, now for our 10 second tidy up summary:
Taste of Burlington
Ice Cream and Kite Festival
Movies in various public locations
Don't Stop Believin'
N&N
P.S. HARRY POTTER OPENS NEXT WEEK!!! Not that we're excited or anything...
