When I first got the idea for
this little event I figured I’d only have to do it once. Stupid me. It was such
a hit that we are now planning Talkfest6! Worst of all is that many of you start harassing me about when it will
be as soon as January 1 arrives.
I ran into a few people since
Francis Trzeciak, our great friend and the world famous Chef and Proprietor of
the Birchrunville Store Café,
confirmed April 27, 2014 as the day. And…we already have some reservations even
before they know anything about this year’s event…including the teeny tiny
donation in support of Camphill Village
Kimberton Hills…where I am still President of the Board of Directors.
So…to those of you who have
complained in the past that you did not get enough notice, here it is. Block
out from 5:04 to 7:49 on Sunday, April 27 in all of your calendars. Don’t
forget the big paper one on the back of the cabinet door in the kitchen.
Let me repeat this: you will
be at the Birchrunville Store Café on April 27 at 5:04.
This means move your
daughter’s (or your) wedding date, postpone your vacation, ignore any other
invitation that arrives, and plan on attending the most spectacular event ever,
starring…you. And some other most interesting people in the world.
One last thing. New this year. We have a world famous artist
creating something just for us to be raffled off at some point during Talkfest.
He has generously donated this in support of our most worthy cause: Camphill Village Kimberton Hills.
Figuring you all will want a chance to own this museum-worthy object, I have
cleverly included the price of a raffle ticket in the donation for the event.
Yes, we are definitely going
to fill up all 60 or so spots so to ensure you’re not disappointed, block out
the day in all your calendars and them immediately email your reservation to
our most excellent Bernadette Kovaleski, bernadette@camphillkimberton.org,
or call her, 610-935-8660. Or both. Or this year you can even register online by clicking here.
The ridiculously low
donation? $167.23 per person. Wow! To support such a great place as Camphill Village Kimberton Hills. And
at no extra charge you get a raffle ticket for a specially-created piece of art
by that world famous artist I mentioned. He’s a bit shy but I think I can get
him to let me announce his name in my next missive. Hopefully we’ll even have a
picture to share before too long.
Of course, for those who
really want to win, I encourage you to purchase additional raffle tickets for
$22.87 each. Remember…the more tickets you have, the better your chances. Only
those of you clever enough to make a reservation for Talkfest 6 will be part of
the raffle.

Directors, Camphill Village Kimberton Hills
6th Annual Talkfest, April 27, 5:04-7:49, Birchrunville
Store Café, $167.23 per person
Extra raffle tickets…$22.87. Buy several…they’re
small.
