We Need a Venue for BFSC's Fourth Annual Bikes for BEAM Kids Charity Event



It is time to start planning the BFSC's 2015 Fourth Annual Bikes for B.E.A.M. Kids  Christmas charity event.

This year we are looking for a new venue to hold the charity party. 
Robert Hudson has been a gracious host for the last three years and needs a break.

Would you like to offer your home for the charity event?

Last year we had approximately 150 friends attend. 

We are looking at having the Bikes for BEAM Kids party on Saturday November 21.

If we are unable to find a home, we are looking at other venues such as Jacksonville Beach Museum, FOP Gun Lodge and Jennifer Johnson Gallery. These facilities charge a rent fee and other expenses, which takes away from the monies we raise for purchasing kids' bikes for BEAM.

Please let Stephanie or Sean Crichton or Walter Campbell or Robert Buck know ASAP if you would like to offer your home. We need to sign the facility's  contract soon and lock our date in.

Thank you for considering your home.
