In the fall, after our Golf Tournament, we have traditionally had a 2nd fundraiser.  For many years we have been taking orders and delivering our beautiful poinsettia plants – just in time to celebrate the holidays.  We are no longer able to do the Poinsettia sales due to a loss of our distributor. We thank all of the businesses and individuals who have supported us. We will miss seeing you.

We do have another fundraiser to announce and we hope you might consider sharing this opportunity. 
Between now and October 19th, we are selling ‘tickets’ for a pair of Adirondack Chairs donated to us by the Sheriff’s Department. As is noted in the poster we will take cash in person, accept checks by mail, and offer an online option by credit card.  $10 for one chance / $25 for three. All we need is your name and either email or phone number, along with payment.  
A drawing will be held at our monthly meeting 10/19th at 6pm.  The winner will be notifed at that time.
