<DIV>Dear LCUUC members and friends:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The LCUUC Board has decided to discontinue selling Equal Exchange products
after this fiscal year which ends on June 30. I am hoping to sell out all
of the remaining coffees, teas, and chocolate bars by the middle of June.
I need your help by purchasing the remaining inventory by then. As I have
said in past years, the Equal Exchange booth does not reach "Black Friday" or
show a profit until about the beginning of May. This year I did not
reach that day until May 22, when our profit turned to $386.55. Sales have
been very slow since January. I've always enjoyed doing this job as long as I
had customers who were happy to see me be open for sales, I started
selling Equal Exchange in 2007 to help pay for the organic Equal Exchange
coffees you drink every Sunday in the Social Hall after the service. We
are on course to make a profit of about $1,000. this year, which is down
from $1200. last year.</DIV>
<DIV>Hope to see you Sunday to finish up selling everything that is
remaining.</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks to all who have made this booth a success. From 2007 to the
present, LCUUC has made a profit of over $8,000 from these sales.</DIV>
