PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
"Let November be your month of giving!"

Hi Everyone,

So excited to be able to see you all in person at our Annual Appreciation event at Angus Barn.  It has been too long! 

If you have not done so already, please consider giving to the Toys for Tots virtual event or you can bring your toy to the Angus Barn where a table will be provided for collections. This year will be even more important with so many people furloughed and without jobs. 

I not only ask you to give toys if you can but also give each other a hello…Happy Holidays message!  Let's swarm all of our members with loving messages this holiday season, and let everyone know we are in this together!
