New and Improved
Craig Bay
REWARDS website!
|
Our site has been completely updated and modernized!
|
|
|
|
Over the past 12 years, many businesses have closed and they have been removed. And we have added new businesses, with more to come. While it still needs a few tweaks, feel free to poke around our new site. www.CBRewards.club
|
If you don't have your FREE REWARDS Card,
pick one up at the Craig Bay office.
|
|
|
* New communication method - Google Groups
|
We now have a new Craig Bay Rewards Group in Google Groups.
- This group creates a versatile way for me (Keith) to announce REWARDS changes and specials. Messages will be short, informative, and informal. You cannot post directly to this group or respond to posts — but you can always email me directly at keithjeffery8@gmail.com. Your addresses are never shared.
|
- Current subscribers will be added shortly. If you would like to enroll, you can do so on the REWARDS site, or send a request to be added to keithjeffery8@gmail.com.
|
We contacted over 80 businesses. Thanks so much to Andrea Manson, Jim Serr, Anne Collins, Reta Clark and Jane Peverette for all their help. And to Ross McKay, who introduced me to the wonders of AI website creation.
Remember to take your REWARDS Card everywhere for significant savings.
Keith Jeffery

The weather is getting colder and soon there will be nights when the temperature is running below zero. Many of your homes are equipped with frost free valves. However, these valves only work if your hose is disconnected from the bibb. Please ensure that your hoses, both front and back are disconnected from the bibbs.
|
|
|
|
Over the next few Wednesday's, WMPG will be going around to homes in our community and will be performing this function, if you have not already completed this task. To ensure a higher degree of safety, you can also purchase outside faucet covers for around $6.00. These are also recommended for use during below freezing weather.
|
|
Keep your home safe during the colder weather!

Bottle Drive Update
|
The bottle drive got off to a slow start after one truck had a battery problem, but with 27 volunteers out sorting and counting was quick. It is a slow month but with a total of $489.00, every bit helps. Also thanks to Alison Chinn who provided the baking which we all enjoyed. Thanks to all the volunteers and especially the new comers.

See you in December - Jim Bottle Drive Coordinator
