So far we have 75 pictures for the 2009 CFuture Calendar - target still stands at 120 - same as the 2007 Calendar with 10 per page (2008's had 9 per page). My target of 120 is basically so that the calendar pages look good - all photo's the same size and no-one singled out with any bigger picture than the other.
Looking at possibly including some CF Fundraising Ventures/Events on the calendar again this year, but that depends on space and timescale.
I think I have secured a bit of the "wow" factor I was searching for this year for the Calendar - watch this space! I may or may not keep that a secret until the Calendar is completed, but am not much good with secrets!!
Keep spreading the word and keep sending in the pictures - together we will make a difference and the 2009 Calendar is guaranteed to be the best yet!!

Update
Fetching the slideshow to the top of the page for now and will try and keep it here.
Pleased to say that "Badger" has agreed to design the 2009 CFuture Calendar for us - 4th year of our team work and am looking forward to working with him again. He has some good idea's. This year target for pictures is 120 - just 2 more pictures off half way at the moment, but they are coming in every day now so hopefully that target will be achievable.
Keep them coming - that £10,000 target will be our's this year!!!
The slideshow can be found on You Tube aswell.

Signing Off the 2008 Calendar!
The 2008 Calendar is drawing to a close sales wise now - selling the odd one or two a week now, but I still have just over 200 left for raising awareness over the next few months.
Proceeds to the Cystic Fibrosis Trust for the 2008 calendar stand at just over £7500 at the moment and it might struggle to £8000 by the time we've finished.
Thank you all for the input and help with the 2008 calendar - it's now time to start on the 2009! Montage is up and running and we're under starters orders to begin again - please send pictures to me before the end of July 2008 if you want to be included again and spread the word - hoping to get more people with Cystic Fibrosis involved this time to finally achieve that magic figure of £10,000 which is elluding me!

New Montage
I've finally worked out how to add my own music to montage's and slideshows so here is an updated version of the calendar montage.
I think it would make a really good awareness "tool" for anyone having a CF Event like a Ball or having to do a talk on CF, so if anyone wants a copy of the DVD version, don't hesitate to get in touch.
Update on monies raised for the calendar should be on here by the end of February - I'm busy collecting all monies in now, but looking at over £7000 in proceeds this year, if not more.
My Regional Fundraising Manager is collecting 750 calendars on Monday to distribute to other RFM's around the country, which will leave me with about 200 to sell. These calendars will either be sold or used to raise awareness, so it's nice to know I won't be left with a cupboard full and they won't go to waste.
Hopefully we can sign off the 2008 calendar soon and be satisfied that it was a good idea, it did raise a lot of money and much awareness and altogether the Calendars over the past 3 year's have raised over £20,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.
Time to move on to my next project .....!!!

CALENDAR SALE NOW ON!!!
In order to try and shift the 1000+ remaining calendars, I've reduced the price to
£3.00 (+ P&P). You can buy them still through the boys website: www.thebarnesboys.org.uk via post or on ebay by searching for "Cystic Fibrosis" or request an Invoice.
Please help me to achieve that much wanted target of £10,000 - looking doubtful at the moment, but maybe with some help we can get there.
Happy New Year to one and all.
