Last year, Lynn Schulberg organized our first SILENT AUCTION which raised over $1,000.00. The prizes were worth much more than $1000. Please start asking your local merchants for prizes/gifts for the next AUCTION and inform Lynn Schulberg at 494-1786.
We do have a Historian, Merle Irvine, who has been working diligently on our records. She also has a few medals so if you missed receiving your medal for a prior year, get in touch. A big thank you to our Historian.
