December Meeting

Our annual Christmas dinner has been planned for Sunday, December, 9th at 5:00pm. The meeting will be held on the second floor of the Pyle Center concession building. Please call or email Ms. Sally with the number of members of your family that will attend and what you plan on making for the pot luck dinner.

Also, as a reminder to our new members, each year every member makes a hand made ornament to present Ms. Carlene for her small tree. Please bring your ornament with you and we'll decorate her tree after dinner.

There will also be collection of non perishable items for our food drive and we are also stuffing a stocking for a 16 year old girl. If you are able to participated in one or both collections, your help is greatly appreciated.

Each year we also have a chinese gift exchange. Each member attending is asked to bring a gift in the amount of five dollars (more or less) of neutral gender for the exchange. We always look forward to this event every year and you'll be surprised the clever gifts the members comes up with. 

Lastly, we are asking each member to share a special Christmas story or it can even be a tall tale with the club. The best story or tall tale will be awarded a prize.

We look forward to seeing everyone!!
