Hello Everyone-

What a busy month we have had.  We did receive money from LCIF to pass out to the flood victims.  I just have to get a hold of one person and we will be done.  However, DG Claire called the other night and said we got more money.  So, we can talk about it again at our meeting.  Our Zone meeting went well.  Upcoming we will have the District Leadership meeting in Stewartville. Well, have a good week everyone and see you Monday.  Julie Levinski will be in charge of our Dessert.
