December's Meeting

The Christmas party was held at Buffalo's after a brief meeting. We collected lots of good stuff for
"Toys for Tots" and "Operation Shoebox" - thanks for everybody's generosity.

Through our 50/50 raffles and other contributions we raise over $180 for the Rocky Bottom Camp
of the Blind. TNT will match the pot for an even $300 gift for the Camp.

Trick N Traction T-shirts, ball caps, and a few denim shirts are available - let us know what
size you need
