From our friends at KNTR:
The trees rustle in a strong, cold autumn breeze. Standing on your front
porch, you watch as the leaves slowly float down to the ground. You hear
something in the distance. Might it be a truck coming down your driveway? You
lose all composure. Is it here? Could it be? You race to meet the brown clad
UPS man with bated breath. He hands you a package. You fly into the house and
franticly tear at the box to reveal the treasure inside. Oh the joy! The
rapture! You finally hold in your hands … the pinnacle of your collection!
This is how you will feel after you receive one of the AMAZING items in the Kids
Need to Read Holiday Auction Extravaganza! Stay tuned for more information on
this exciting and completely AWESOME auction showcase. Coming your way November
23rd!

Come visit Austin, Texas, December 4th-6th, 2009 as it is transformed into
Southdown Abbey on Persephone from the Firefly and Serenity 'Verse.
Join us as we celebrate Shepherd Book's journey before becoming a crew member on
Serenity. We'll start with an Abbey Fashion Show, showcasing Asian-inspired
designs, while offering Sereniteas' blended teas, as well as homemade hors
d'oeuvres. We'll have a costume picnic on the Abbey grounds and then a dance in
the Fellowship Hall with music by The Bedlam Bards and food made primarily from
produce grown at the Abbey! We'll end this shiny shindig with Serenity on the
Big Screen at our local Alamo Drafthouse Lake Creek.
The best part - all proceeds from this event will go to support The Al Wooten
Jr. Heritage Center of which Ron Glass, our Shepherd Book, is a Board Member.
