Our October Meeting...

Our October meeting took place in November... which I think in hindsight was a great thing because that meant more people, including myself, were able to attend.  The meeting was held on November 4th in the Mill Creek Church Fellowship Hall.  Andrea was the host.

Just to bring everyone that did not attend up to speed:  Debra gave a rough estimate regarding the cementary project.  It looks like it won't be as expensive as some of us orginally had thought, yet it still will be a huge cost and therefore we formed a committee to tackle the logistics of the cementary project but also fundraising ideas.  Members on the committee are Beverly, Debra, Emily, Andrea, Regina, and Rhonda... more will and can be added, just let one of us know if you are interested.  We already have some interesting ideas for some money-making projects like a 5K run and/or a Ghost Trail.

We also discussed the Winter Board meeting which is the first Saturday in December... if you are wanting to attend, please email me or give me a call.  I have the applications on email and I can forward them to you or put one in the mail.  Applications are due by the 20th along with a $15 check for your meal. 

Julie will host the next meeting (which is the actual November meeting)-- it will be November 30th at Mill Creek and the phone tree will be activated to remind everyone.  Please note: at the November 4th meeting we were thinking it would be December 2nd.

Andrea held an informative program on Canada's impact on Civil War.  She told us how Canadians helped the war effort in their support for the Southern States... which to most of us was a little bit of a shock seeing how Canada borders the Northen States.

Again, the next meeting will be November 30th (a Tuesday).  Julie is the host.  Her husband, a government professor, will be our guest speaker.  Please make plans to attend.

See you Soon!
