SOMETHING NEW!!!!

We are going to have a food drive beginning with Easter. For every non-perishable item donated, you will receive a ticket for a drawing consisting of a basket of goodies. The drawing will be at the New Years Eve Party on July 31. You must be present to win. If you can’t be in attendance, give your ticket with your name on the back to a friend who will be there. They can claim it for you. All items collected will then be taken to a local food pantry. Let’s all pull together and make this a great community project.
