We will end at 9pm at the latest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #93c47d; color: red;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #93c47d; color: red;"&gt;Please note, I am not a babysitter...if your child goes and wanders around the grounds inside or out, they will have 1 warning. If it happens again, they will be asked to not participate in future events for 3 months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #93c47d; color: red;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #93c47d; color: red;"&gt;All kids under the age of 18 will be asked to sign in and out to participate. They are welcome to use my cell phone to call you for a ride if we end prior to 9pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #93c47d;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #93c47d;"&gt;Thanks for understanding!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: #93c47d;"&gt;JoeT&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5746926684861667235-763140241412528172?l=ctkyouthminister.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ctkyouthminister.blogspot.com/feeds/763140241412528172/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ctkyouthminister.blogspot.com/2010/01/open-mic-night-jan-17th.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5746926684861667235/posts/default/763140241412528172'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5746926684861667235/posts/default/763140241412528172'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ctkyouthminister.blogspot.com/2010/01/open-mic-night-jan-17th.html' title='Open Mic Night Jan 17th!!!'/><author><name>Joe Thomashefski</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01398378855806309542</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Rp7GtjVHgw8/S0o6cf12lxI/AAAAAAAAAAM/GvzbeFldTbk/S220/joe+sings+solo.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
