New Location We are growing be leaps and bonds and I have been getting phone calls from former members that they heard through the grape vine that we at Funny Business have it going on. So we are looking at more members joining and  our location we have now is not going to accommodate to many more people so We are asking for members who live in the area of where we meet to help look for a new location. It most have good lighting and wheel chair accessible and close to the freeway . Please call me or email me with locations .

WITH MORE & MORE DISASTERS HAPPENING AROUND THE WORLD, RED NOSE RESPONSE IS NEEDED MORE THAN EVER.

There are now tornados in Kentucky, Tennessee and Arkansas.  Alabama is being threatened and other southern states also.  So far CNN said that 72 people have died.  The message was put out to Red Nose Response (RNR) clowns telling them to get involved in the tornado areas as soon as they know what is going on.  When it is daytime then the damage can be assessed.  In California we need to start taking Red Cross classes and become certified with them so we know what to do in an emergency.  During our last rainstorms, we had a tornado warning in Long Beach California.  We need to get prepared.  -Pam House

The Orange County Puppetry Guild is planning an event for June 21, 2009.  The Classic Clowns of Whittier already wants to be involved in the event and I was asked if I could bring this up to our club to see if we want to be involved also.  The Muckethaler Estate & Cultural Center Foundation in Fullerton would be letting us use their Estate at no charge.  And they would be doing ALL of the advertising for us.  Whatever your “expertise” is, you could do it that day.  They even have a theater that we can use and an outside “park like” setting
(see: themuck.org).  If it is decided that food should be there for the people coming to the event to purchase throughout the day, the Foundation would take care of the food for us.  From 1PM – 6 or 7PM we would probably be doing our workshops & shows.  Then from 7PM – 10PM the Orange County Puppetry Guild would do an evening puppet show.

This is in the very “BEGINNING & FORMATIVE” stage so the OC Puppetry Guild is just putting out their feelers to see what other groups would also like to be involved with them to do this event.  And they are also just formulating ideas no what things we would actually want to do at the event.  The Estate’s mission is as follows:  “To provide our community experiences that stimulate creativity and imagination: and to conserve the heritage of the Muckenthaler Estate”. 

We would be “volunteering” our time but we would be allowed to give out our business cards, flyers and such.  And people who would be coming to the event would see us “doing out things” and business could come from this.  I will bring it up at the meeting and people can ask me any questions.  Decide if any of you want to be involved.  – Vice-President, Pam House –
