Hello Ladies-
What a wonderful time we had at the Motl’s. Thank
you to both of them and to the
committee!!! A good time was had by all!
Well, the summer came and went! It is now time
once again to roll up our sleeves and
jump into another year of fundraising and meetings! We
had our budget meeting and a
meeting to figure out our speakers for the year.
In September we have the white cane
days and the next zone meeting. Don’t forgot ladies to
help out on the ice cream social for
project compass!
Well, see you all August 27th. PS we signed up
for desserts. August was Jenny K.
