I picked up the order this afternoon. The gal at the post office was disappointed that I picked it up so soon – “It smells so good!” (I’ll have to take her in an order form!)

Just in time, as the church had run out, and there is a funeral reception tomorrow afternoon. And I have to tell you I ran out this time and had to go back to my old brand..but what a difference! It’s just not the same!

I was the recipient of some of your coffee as a Christmas gift. The coffee was terrific and I wanted to get more. When I asked where my friend had purchased it, they said they got it through a fundraising program at their kids school. This gave me an idea. I sit on the Board of a small theatre company who is always looking for more funding, especially during these times of proposed cuts.

I’m wondering if you might have a package of information as to how the program works that you could email me to take to the next board meeting for discussion.

Thanks for your time,

Hello Roy,

On April 14th, I attended the Sechelt Salmon Enhancement Society’s annual fund raiser – a dinner and auction. My bid was the winner of a gift box of various coffee products from Pistol and Burnes. Your business card was also included

Firstly, thank you for supporting the Salmon Enhancement Society with your donation. Secondly, where can I get more Vienna Double Roasted coffee?? My husband and I both loved it and we’d like more!

We’re located in Richmond and I work downtown so any outlets you have in either area would be great.

Looking forward to another nice hot cup of Vienna Double Roasted.

Peru Trip, March 2005

Members and sponsor teachers of the International Friendship Association at Delta Secondary travelled to Peru over the spring break.

The group had a fabulous time visiting such diverse areas as Lima, Arequipa, Paracas and Cusco. One of the highlights of the trip was our volunteer work helping with school maintenance work in the small villages of Urubamba and Ollantaytambo.

We were happy to spend funds from our coffee fundraising program on paint supplies and basic plumbing and electrical improvements.

We also visited an orphanage for deaf children in Cusco and donated funds to their program as well. After our volunteer work we hiked the last day of the Inca trail and arrived at Machu Picchu on a beautiful sunny afternoon.

Thanks again for your assistance with the fundraising program.
