I have not been able to post October or November minutes on the blogg as Windows 10 disappears emails. The last two meetings have been in another smaller room in the church hall but Wednesday we are back to the same room we have been meeting in.

Hello everyone,

We start at 6:00 p.m.

- Jeannette has volunteered to do the silent Auction, so if you have any items to donate, please bring them with you.

- Jeannette has volunteered to do a game.

- Anne has volunteered to bring the punch.

- I will bring the tablecloths.

- There will be a gift exchange for those who wish to participate.

AND everyone is requested to bring something to eat for the POTLUCK.

See you all on Wednesday in the large room downstairs.

Smiles,
Linda
