Upcoming events:

In July, Branco Events formed a Movie Club. On Tuesday evenings, once a month, movie lovers get together and see a movie of their choice at the Dartmouth Mall. We chose Tuesdays because we pay $4 and get free pop corn. In July, we saw "Bewitched", and in August we saw "Must love Dogs." If you would like to be a part of our Monthly Tuesday Night Movie Club send me an email or call the Branco Events office at 508-994-4972 to be contacted about the upcoming movies we will be seeing.

Get on our list for more information! To help spread the word about our activities, Branco Events is building a data base, not only of email addresses, but for those people without computers. Michelle messier is assisting with this project, and we thank her very much for her loyalty. If anyone without a computer wants to be informed of what we're doing, they will receive a post card either on a monthly or bimonthly basis. Call us at at 508-994-4972 to be added to our postal mailing list, or send us an email to be added to our emailing list.

For information about upcoming events send us an email or call us at 508.994.4972 today!

2/12/06 As you probably know, we're having a major snow storm. It's the first one of the winter season, which means we have a winner in the snow contest. Last fall, I asked people to predict when New Bedford would get its first 4-inch snow fall this winter. I would like to congratulate Rachel Andrade for being the closest guesser. She wins an item from Sharon Costa's arts-and-crafts creations.

Branco Events is forming a vision support group in the New Bedford area. On every other Friday afternoon, several blind and visually-impaired persons will meet for one hour to discuss their issues and network with each other to provide support. Please let us know if you know anyone who would like to participate in our vision support group.

This year, Branco Events would like to hold another talent show and a dinner/dance, however, we'd like to change locations. In the past, we've used the Moose Lodge for our functions, however, the Moose has added an additional expense for anyone renting their hall, and at this time, Branco Events can not afford it. If you have another hall in mind, please recommend it to us. Remember that the hall must be wheelchair accessible.

Due to the resignation of one of our staff members, Branco Events is looking for a dependable person to make telephone calls informing individuals of particular up-coming events. The caller must have good telephone manners and the ability to communicate with persons with learning disabilities. If you or someone you know would like to help Branco Events in this fashion, please let me know by emailingme or calling our office at 508-994-4972.

Branco Events has formed a professional relationship with the Horizons Group Home on County St., New Bedford. A staff member at the home heard about volunteer opportunities that Branco Events is offering, such as clerical support and mass mailings. Horizons helps adolescents.

Teddybear-&-Friends Bowling League can now pay off the balance of the trophy bill from the 2005 banquet. I would like to take this golden opportunity to thank the following sponsors publicly for their most generous contributions: JS Web Solutions, Pencils Office Supply Company, TK O'Malley's, Antonio's Restaurant, Garcia Import Tile, and Sharon Costa. The bowling league will continue to ask the community for assistance as well as raise its own funds to make sure that our 2006 bowling banquet will be the best ever.

About Bob Branco:
Hi, Everyone. My name is Bob Branco, owner of Branco Events. I am a life-long resident of New Bedford, Massachusetts, born August 12, 1957. For the first several years of my schooling, I was placed in a sight saving class, where we all received special attention due to the small class size as well as our visual deficiencies. When I reached the fifth grade, the State of Massachusetts could no longer accommodate me locally, so I was sent to the Perkins School for the blind in Watertown, Mass, where I graduated from their high school in 1977. I went on to receive an associates degree from Bristol Community College in Business Administration, and then obtained my Bachelors' degree in Finance at Southeastern Massachusetts University.

I belonged to many community-minded organizations over the years, and became well-versed in coordinating activities. I ran trips, dances, workshops, class reunions, surprise parties, talent shows, candy sales, car washes, Christmas parties, bowling leagues, softball teams, etc. When I started Branco Events, I was quite confident that my personal experience in planning activities would serve to benefit the business a great deal, and help it become a complete success. As you continue to look through my web sight, you will probably have questions, comments and opinions. Please submit them to me at branco182@worldnet.att.net.
