2022 Service Project CompetitionAs you may know, every year the new President-elect is charged with working on a fundraiser in support of their year as a President-elect. This year, the project is in support of "My Very Own Blanket" organization. I've attached a PDF to give you the details, but suffice it to say if you missed the meeting, as a club we've already committed to make or donate at least 33 blankets. Please see the flyer for more details.https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-zQjWsWk6tWdN6_ZryWIXu8qsrfXrBr9400fORduo3w/edit?usp=sharing We are a little behind, but two important things. 1) The deadline is March 9th, so that means every day you could click on the link and increment your donation. How nice?! 2) The board will be acting to do....something in support of this project too. Perhaps we'll match what club members do. Perhaps we'll make a flat monetary donation. Perhaps it will be something else! Hard to say at the moment. Thanks for your support. If you have any questions, please reach out to.....President-elect Teresa Russell! 🙂 Update:62 Blankets donated thus far. Keep up the good work. Deadline is March 9th.Flyer |

4th of July Steering TaskforceThere are 126 days until the 4th of July, and that means it's high-time we begin planning for our annual 4th of July family picnic! But this year we're going to start things a little differently, and that's with an evaluation of what the 4th of July Family Picnic should be! We are looking to get a meeting together of any club members who are willing to serve on a steering committee to help influence what this event should be. If you are a former or current committee member, or have insider knowledge on this event, I highly encourage you to step forward to help guide the future of this event. If you are a club member who has thoughts on what the 4th of July family picnic should be, it's imperative that you participate.Please, let me know if you are able to join this temporary, low-committement, steering task force. I will setup a meeting with all those willing at a date in the near future. |
