Beautiful Monday!!!
Everyone must be busy today!!! I have been until now and decided to check my mail.
Nita, we have 39 on the roll in my chapter. Fourteen plan to go to SRD. We always have such a good time. Two friends and I go a day early and go shopping or something in the extra time. We all try to go to all the workshops during the other three days. That's out time for to just run away. We always have a good time. We do that at other times, about once every 6 weeks.
We have fund raisers all during the year to help defray the expence of going to SRD. That way some get to go that might not be able to otherwise. The easiest one we have done in a long time, the 1st of Feb. three of us got together one Sat. afternoon and made 2 Valentine baskets. Put bath stuff and a cup with low fat, low sugar hot chocolate in it. Added a nice candle, a cross that one of our members makes, went to Wal-mart and got a couple of little wire baskets wrapped it in red cellopane with a tule bow. Sold chances for $5 each and made $450.00. You could do it for any holiday. The things we put in were all donated, so all the proceeds went into the SRD fund. One of the banks in town let us set up to sell tickets twice and the credit union once. And that was all the work to it.
I need to get off...talk tomorrow, have a good night!!!
